‘Waes hael. A relatively mild and dry day to pop along to the annual Wassail at the Horfield Organic Orchard. As ever, the event attracts more visitors year on year. This reflects a growing popularity towards these old customs, especially amongst young families…
Significant snow is rare here. Bristol usually misses most of the bad winter weather that other parts of the country gets. It can get pretty cold but very cold frosty mornings aren’t that plentiful. This morning I fling back the curtains and everything has had a dusting of frost and the sun is rising on a cloudless day.
Well here we all are yet again! After several months of build up the madness of the festive season is finally upon us. Every year we swear we will spend less and consume less but there’s always a big pile of food and drink come the day.
Ah! Guy Fawkes Night. We usually give this a miss but this year we took my daughter and granddaughter to the big fireworks display nearby. We had perfect Guy Fawkes Night weather this year, slightly chilly and dry.

There was a surprising amount of things going on over this years Christmas. So much so that as well as being downtime from work it also felt like downtime from my camera.
