Cards sent 10 days ago to avoid postal disruption. Hillbilly has few friends or living relatives. I'm there, aren't I ?

Mrs hillbilly is the cook, so got a turkey crown ordered from M&S. Picking it up early Christmas Eve. Got the tree decorated (see photo). Got a couple of cards from people, which is always nice. Nipping to Aldi on Saturday to get a cooked ham,.....and hopefully cheap booze for Mrs H. Christmas Day isn't normal without a good booze-fuelled argument in late afternoon. So, we're having a very Global-warming centred Christmas. cutting a tree down, picking holly from woodland bushes. Got a 2 tonne delivery of chopped wood coming next week for the open fire. That might last into January.

A lovely tree nicely ornamented. Well done! But Mrs. Hannes liked the guard dog of the tree even more.
