View from on high

I've spent quite a bit of the day with this view down into the living area. Satsumas always spell Christmas to me and their gorgeous colour has to make you happier. 

Sadly, I think this will be the last pic of our ancient Christmas tree lights. We reckon they predate S so that's 30 years old that they've done us proud with never a whinge or blown fuse. However it seems they've decided to expire all together as C worked to resuscitate them, all in vain. 

Such a shame - they don't make them like these old things any more with that nice soft light. 

And that's today's big event! Life is pretty restricted to such minor things and folk are busy doing their own stuff with family and friends. We're neither of us hugely social people and this time of year you realise maybe we should get out more!

I did have a lovely long phone call with a friend from South this morning though, so not really billy-no-mates!
