CHRISTMAS HIGHS.. CHRISTMAS LOWS..

GIVE’EM A CLICK ! WHO WANTS SCROTTY LITTLE IMAGES LIKE THESE WHEN YOU CAN HAVE BIG CRISPY HIGH RESOLUTION GALLERY STYLE SMASHERS? ONLY AN IDIOT, THAT’S WHO !

So, as ever, Christmas has been a mixed bag…..’Highs’ and ‘Lows’.

‘ The Lows’ included sitting all the way through a Sarah Jessica Parker movie, (a talent-less harpy with the voice of a screech owl and a face like a whittled brick)… Listening to the Queens speech, which sounded like a half hearted, ill informed and out of touch recommendation that the adopting of some strange form of Quasi-Buddhism will solve all of our personal and National woes… and, last but not least, spoon-feeding my poor demented mother with what looked like nuclear waste, but what hospital staff informed me had once been turkey and gravy….

All things best avoided.

However, ‘The Highs’ have done their best to keep everything balanced.

Waking to a hand made Christmas card from the love of my life, Mrs Shpics. Just a smidgen of romance, some paper, a printer and some felt tip pens and, believe me, there’s no card finer….

Having a crisp and cold Boxing day walk with the aforementioned Love Goddess…burning off the calories from easily the best Christmas day dinner I’ve ever had….Plus, both of us taking cameras and cracking off some piccies…I tell you, It doesn’t get much better !!

First off, a few shots of the late evening Boxing day sun peeking through the fog.

Secondly, a couple of accommodation possibilities for a forthcoming holiday we’re currently considering…We’re getting a bit long in the tooth for tents..Should we go for caravan or cabin? And, if we do go the caravan route, (my personal favourite), should we book the colour or the monochrome? You decide.
