...a great Christmas Tree up the aisle, while others in the choir practise glorious chant for the Christmas Masses. Cassocked parish priest organising the creation of a massive Nativity scene at a side altar with a team of parishioners. Relays of people bringing assorted shepherds and angels out from the big cupboard behind the sacristy...
I absolutely love the preparation of the church for Christmas...
And here at home, the writing of many, many Christmas cards, the pleasure of connecting with old friends. Ann is a penfriend from Girl Guiding days almost half a century ago - we have been faithful correspondents over the years and this year we finally met, and had a lovely, lovely day together...our exchange of cards and emails this Christmas gave a special joy and satisfaction and, yes, we'll be meeting again 2017!
