Morning lovely people tis Friday time for
Well last Friday we were due to go to see a Christmas Carol inside Sheffield Cathedral with my sister, but being a nurse she often picks up bugs at this time of year, so alas she couldn't make it. Me and hubby went anyway and enjoyed a wander around the Sheffield Christmas market albeit that most of it was stalls to either eat or drink, we also wandered a couple of shops on our way around. We had a naughty tea in McDonalds and then headed to the Cathedral. The show was done by the Chapterhouse theatre group and was fantastic, the only down side were church pews for two and a half hours, my back isn't what it was.
We had woken to a bright blue skies day, but Jack Frost had been painting on the windows
We had a wander around to the Church in the afternoon for the Christmas tree festival and enjoyed taking photos of the frost
The festival was brilliant as always, I love the handmade items for the trees, they do make me smile from one-eyed donkeys
to knitted polar bears
and tiny mangers
The trees really did look beautiful
and I enjoyed a moment of pre-Christmas solace alone in God's house
Sunday was a different story we woke to a good couple of inches of snow.
and whilst it might look festive it really isn't very convenient these days. Thankfully we'd already planned a stay at home and chill day if I'm honest.
I've also started my Lego advent calendar, which really is now a bit of a tradition, although there are some days when I still have to google what the items are, thankfully Harry on the 1st was easy.
The rest of the week has been manic busy at work, including today when my primary role was peeling potatoes for chips for our volunteer get together, I've had to come home and have a shower and all my clothes are going in the wash due to the smell of chip fat. Hey ho the things you do, lol.

the show in the cathedral sounds great, shame you didn't have a cushion! Luckily here we've not had snow only rain (which I am fed up with) at least it didn't disrupt your stay at home Sunday. I hope you have got rid of the smell of chip fat now!! have a great weekend ahead. Helen xx
Hi Virginia. Sorry I haven't been around much. As you may have seen, I have a broken humerous which is painful so Iam typing slowly with my left hand! I wish I could visit your tree festival. It looks amazing. But much as I can appreciate the beauty of the frost, I don't envy you the snow at all. Wrap up warm and stay safe.
Well done on the chip prep. Any food in quantity does not appeal to me, and especially fried food. Kate x
