This has been a horrible year for so many people in so many countries.
However, the advent of several vaccines has given us fresh hope that some day soon we will be able to once again hug our loved ones safely.
This is not a good time of year weather-wise. But I do take pleasure in small things whilst unable to travel: the joy of spotting our resident Robin Redbreast; the last few chrysanthemums braving the December rain; and the first tentative harbingers of spring as next year's bulbs begin to appear.
I wish you all a Merry Christmas, and best wishes for the new year.
Here's to better times next year!

A genealogy search led me to your pages, which has been a Christmas present in itself, and a great start to 2021.
ReplyDeleteYour Case Study family (Lomas - Fawfieldhead) is my ancestry too.
I'm pretty excited to find you, so wondered if we can chat please?
Happy New Year.
