Christmas in town

Christmas in our Town Hall Square.

At Christmas at home we always play a board game. Paddington's Adventure, so we were pleased to see that our Town Hall Square had been decorated just for us.


There he goes on his adventures.



Good fun isn't it, and colourful in December.








Merry Christmas

Christmas Tree Festival

A town local to us has a Victorian Christmas Fayre every year. At the same time as this, the Church in the town holds a Christmas Tree festival.


Sorry for the low light levels, hope you get the idea.


The Church is a good venue with plenty of room and its very well organised.





This one is simple and sophisticated, a florist at work, of course.


Knitted Policemen


Chinese Christmas Tree. I've no idea whether this is correct but that is the theme.

December, mostly decorations

Boxing Day at Abbey Park

Boxing Day walk

 The tea rooms was open, we really really didn't expect it to be, so of course we just had to go in.

After that we had a nice walk before going into town to spend some Christmas money and something to eat.








Lots of promise for the spring and summer.



A rare bit of colour at this time of year.

Christmas Eve at Bradgate Park

I know its rather late in the day how, but never the less, this was our walk at Bradgate Park on Christmas Eve.

We usually do go here and many many times throughout they year. You never tire of the view.


Had to just show you this first.



Very buzy with lots of people doing the same as us.





Hope you enjoyed that as much as we did. The weather was kind to us this year. We had ice and snow last year, which you would expect, being as it was December but dosn't make it easy to get around.

Christmas Decorations

I had a trip into town yesterday to do abit of shopping.

Decorations in the Town Hall Square



There is usually a childrens theme, they do have a manger scene as well, but I couldn't get to it due to work taking place.




Two Christmas Tree's, the usual one by the Clock Tower


and the posh one in the new Highcross shopping centre.
