Hopefully each of you will be able to draw the support and strength needed at a time like this from each other. I’m so sorry to hear about your brother-in-law, Jane, you must be feeling devastated.

There are plans for making stollen though. And is that squirrel chomping on the fallout from a bird feeder? It looks as plump as a pudding.

How lovely to have such a great tradition. In my eyes, Christmas is all about tradition and family/friends and time together. Unfortunately we won't really be celebrating Christmas this year. Andrew's brother is very, very ill in France and his Mum and sister are there with him. We have just come back from visiting them, and are feeling very sad. We will have to see what each day brings, but it's good to hear your lovely traditions are still going on. I’ve come over all Charles Dickens reading your entry above!
