I refer, in my introduction to this blog, to complications and one of my complications is that I'm somewhat prone to fatigue. The fatigue has caught up with me this weekend, so I had a rather slow start to the day. After that I did settle down to a session of card writing.
It is the weekend of the local Christmas Tree Festival and craft market so I went along this afternoon. the trees are set up in the parish church and visitors are being asked to vote for their favourite. There are some good ones with a mix of traditional, modern and innovative and a few particularly caught my eye. The Beer Festival have a tree decorated with bottle tops and beer mats, the WI have a traditional looking tree.
The Brownies' tree includes some pudding decorations:
and the Retirement Group's tree has some lovely work on display:
My decision was a difficult choice between the Junior School's Advent tree of decorated biscuits:
and the Floral Society's tree of 1914-18 cards and event memorabilia:
Wandering round the trees and market has made me feel that the season really has started.
