Christmas Eve

 
I'm shocked!
I met the woman downstairs today and discovered it was not the woman I thought it was.  They had moved out and this one replaced them about 18 months ago.  Jings, no-one tells me anything.
Anyway, I got on well with her and her 'uncle,' and walked round the town for air.
This grubby tree was in the centre and I took a shot of the lights though I do not like trees.  These are pagan things and have no place in Xmas to me.  However, the weather, ike the streets, was too dull for anything else, so I sauntered home, passing the few folks out seeking last minute gifts, or visiting watering holes, if open, for Xmas.  I saw one or two groups, and indeed heard them long before I saw them, well watered!
Now we face the Xmas days.  Tomorrow is Christmas Day, then Boxing Day, with two days off after this for the family arguments and recovery.
Many will also be sharing Covid virus's with friends and family, I will remain in safety with my liqueurs and whisky for protection...

The partues have started here already...we can hear the shrieks and music from the village hall on the other side of the valley, so goodness knows what hell is in store for its neighbours over the festive season. Unless they are all in there shrieking too...
Watch out, 'uncle' may not approve of his companion being chatted up by some young man who claims to live in the upstairs flat...

Fly, Sounds like fun in the village Hall, make sure the road back is blocked.
'Uncle' is a young man, six months younger than me! Tee Hee.
