Life in Newburgh on Ythan

By Talpa

One night, a long time ago.

And sche bare hir first borun sone, and wlappide hym in clothis, and leide hym in a cratche, for ther was no place to hym in no chaumbir.

And scheepherdis weren in the same cuntre, wakynge and kepynge the watchis of the nyyt on her flok.

John Wycliffe's Translation of Luke. 1382 to 1395

These nativity figurines of Mary carrying  the baby Jesus, wrapped in his swaddling clothes, and a young shepherd with his lamb are from Peru. This must be the most cheerful Jesus of all time!

Well, that is 5 years of blipping under my belt and I have enjoyed every minute! Let us hope that blipfoto, by whatever name,  will still be going strong in another 5 years.
