Now I can say 'a very Merry Christmas to you and your household'. A mighty tree, a one and only, perfectly finished with Monty Bear up the top there blessing you all. We had a family 'xmas sweet making day'. Pity I can't send you a kilo or two!
Can't wait till Christmas this year! My son is coming(been a long time) and bringing his new puppy! She is a 4 month old cattle dog that is a rescue with huge ears. Since she looks like a kangaroo he named her "Roo". Our 11 year old blind multi-poo will have to adapt. Sorry, too much info. I'm just so excited...Merry Christmas!

Optimistic Cro!
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist, is that the optimist enjoys himself whilst waiting for the inevitable! I AM that optimist!
This is a daily, optimistic, 'photos and comments' blog. I make no judgements (only occasionally), just notes. If you wish to comment in any way at all, please feel free. Everything and everyone (except the obdurate and dictatorial) is very welcome.
I was born just south of London, but for the past 50 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live between an ancient cottage in a tiny village in perfectly tranquil French countryside, and a bijou townhouse in Brighton UK. In France we have plenty of fruit trees, all situated amongst a view that takes the breath away, in the UK we have a handkerchief sized patio. We also have a Border Collie called Billy. I try to treat our planet with respect, and encourage others to do likewise (without preaching).
Contentment is a glass of red, a plate of charcuterie, and a slice of good country bread. Perfect!
This is a a beautiful Christmas card Cro!
ReplyDeleteI love the tree...and Bok!
Greetings Maria x
I had to cut the top off, it was too tall.
DeleteNow that is a Christmas tree and everyone needs a Christmas dog. Bok looks very comfy on his Christmas couch.
ReplyDeleteHe was helping, at least I think he was.
DeleteMy guess is bok was the on site supervisor.
DeleteYay! Beautiful tree!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a bit rowdy.
DeleteI like rowdy trees! That red sofa sets it off nicely. And Bok is too cute for words.
DeleteThat's a great Christmassy scene.
ReplyDeleteWe're getting there.

We're feeling very festive now. We were out last night to a nice party, and that seems to have started our fun.
DeleteBok looks exhausted after his supervision - it's hard work being a dog.
ReplyDeleteIt's a hard life. He's sleeping now.
DeleteThat looks very nice Cro. Very traditional. Where's Freddie?
ReplyDeleteNo idea; he never tells us.
DeleteThe tree is wonderful and Bok is the perfect decoration.
ReplyDeletecheers, parsnip
He was a great help.
DeleteLike all people of taste we have done our Christmas decks today and not on Dec 1st
ReplyDeleteJohn, it fits in with the 12 days of Christmas; no need for more.
