I had enjoyed Christmas Day greatly. Church in the morning was followed by an excellent lunch “over the road”. Boxing Day was spent quietly at home doing very little, but, feeling in a state of contentment. I remained disillusioned with the output of Christmas day-time (and evening) T.V. but I did have Netflix films and YouTube documentaries as an escape from T.V. presenters wearing Father Christmas hats etc!
On Sunday, I was in good time for the final Eucharist of the year at St. John’s Church. As usual, we were socially distanced, as was the choir who sang to their usual exemplary standards. Bishop Jack is taking over while the Rector continues to recover from her recent illness.
I heard an amusing account of a child’s first word, the other day. “Bubble!”
Yesterday, Monday, it was frosty and cold. It took a while for the frost to evaporate from my red car. My lame silver car was wired up for the battery to be charged overnight. This morning, it’s a case of “Snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow!” It’s still snowing! But for once, I am quite pleased. I used to detest the stuff, and the cold weather that came with it. But these days, I rather the like the spectacle of a blizzard and its effect on the surrounding countryside and trees.
Many thanks for reading,
David.
