December part 2

So December.........
We went down to Shropshire to celebrate my Mother in laws 80th birthday with family and friends.




We watched the final of Strictly and drank Mulled Cider and Prosecco (not together!!)
Back home and the Christmas tree is up and we had one rare moment when all three cats were together in the lounge!

The last week at school saw the whole school off to see the Panto, Christmas Craft days and Jumper days and school Christmas dinner.



My journey to and from work have been interesting too


Last minute gift buying and wrapping has been done, (with a little help from Milo)

 an early morning stroll around Halifax in the rain one day......





 Back home and next doors tree put a smile on my face!
 I had purchased a small felt wreath to hang on the inside of the front door

 I went on our Works Christmas Do......
 At the Midland Hotel in Manchester


Then yesterday I dropped off my family's Christmas Presents and went for a mooch around Liverpool with my mum.
 It was a beautiful sunny day with blue skies...

 Then the fog rolled in and it was suddenly cold!





 The Old Conway Pub on Tarleton Street















 I was up early this morning to collect a parcel from the sorting office in Halifax......managed to take a photo of the Chiropractic in Sowerby Bridge.......they always do great window displays.

 And our local Tesco have a WW2 Christmas on the Homefront theme with the staff dressed up and decorations all home made....
 So tomorrow is Christmas Eve, we hope to have a walk somewhere and a relax before the big day but I am sure I will be back to show you what we got up to over the festive period, Until then.....
I want to wish you all a
Very Merry Christmas!

    How did you find the Midland we had our Christmas do there for the last two years. We gave it a miss this year and went to the Tiffin room. Which was OK, but nothing on a proper night out.

    1. I quite liked the Midland, lovely food and it had a good atmosphere I left about 11pm though as Hubby very kindly picked me up and he had an early start the next morning at work! Hope you also had a good Christmas xx

  4. I really enjoyed that - Liverpool looks really interesting at Christmas. I still haven't made it to the Piece Hall yet - it is still on my list!
    Have a wonderful Christmas - I look forward to more of your travels.
