Monday, May 27, 2013. I am sorry about the long absence. This doesnt mean that I am in hibernation, far from it. There is plenty to write about, but not the spare time to sit down long enough to contemplate a blog post. These are the things that get in the way:. Family - coming to stay, visiting them, baby sitting, reading to little ones, and hosting my delightful 'Auntie 94' who came to stay for a week. Which I have wanted for a long time. Kiwifruit - picking starts tomorrow. Links to this post. Some of...

It is a wonderfully entertaining resource, which teaches the history of many of the Christmas traditions that we observe to this day, including the making of a wide variety of decorations, different recipes, and of course, the good old Christmas cracker!

Thursday, December 19, 2013. Adoration of the Christ Child". Music composed by Michael Finnisy. The Choir of St John's College, Cambridge. Soon must I sing with rejoicing,. For the time is run. Of a wee child all undefiled,. The King of Heaven's Son. His blood so red for thee was shed,. The price it was not small. Remember well that which I tell,. And come when Jesu call. Man stands in doubt, and seekst about,. Where that they mayst him see. Idols they set, riches to get,. Fashioned from stone and tree.
