Well, the car’s half packed, the wine’s chilling, the presents are wrapped and the socks knitted. Here’s the pair I showed you before, all ready for my brother (no need to worry about spoiling surprises; no-one from my family and few of my friends read this blog).
My brother’s not usually on a first name basis with yellow (I was thinking yellow would give the illusion of warmth when he was in New York for the northern winter, only he went and changed plans on me, and now he’s back under the too-yellow sun of Sydney), yet they’re so his era.
Then there’s this pair for my friend, Jane.
And this which I received from my friend of over 30 years, Theresa: a “knit one, sip one” coffee mug.

Thank you to all who’ve read my blog this year and commented and encouraged me. It really does make a difference when I’m wondering what’s the point, or when I feel as if I’ve got nothing to say. Thank you in particular to my three star commentors:
- the redoubtable Mr Phillip S Phogg, Esq, a truer and more stalwart commentor a blogger never had; Phoggy, your curiosity, wide knowledge and thoughtfulness have greatly enriched this blog
- the host with the mostest and best-selling author, Mr Andreas Kluth; Andreas, your warm and enquiring mind is a pleasure to be in
- my good friend, Mulberry; dear R, your grace and empathy are an inspiration to me.
May you and all my readers have a happy Christmas, and a year of joy and satisfaction. SGxx
A very Happy Christmas to you, Solid Gold.
I look forward to reading more of your posts when they appear.
Here’s to warm feet. ;)
