Rain, Rain Go Away!
I can not remember the last time I saw the sun! It is the most dismal and dull Christmas period, that I can ever recall. It hasn't stopped raining since I left off work on Christmas Eve! According to the weather forecast, we will next see the sun here on Saturday 1st January 2022! Roll on next year for loads of reasons!
I had a lovely afternoon with Vivien and Ray on their narrowboat today. Lucy was invited too, but she didn't feel up to it. Ray made us some scrumptious Potato and Leek soup and teamed up with my Granary bread, made a lovely lunch. The resident Muscovy Ducks looked happy – unphased by the relentless rain.
Back to work tomorrow.

CHRISTMAS DAY!
It was almost like a normal Saturday. Woke up at 9am to dull and dreary skies. Went straight downstairs and topped up the bird feeders with some special treats of organic apple, sultanas, mealworms and some of my granary bread on the bird table for my Blackbirds. Lots of birds in the garden this morning and at one point, I had at least 30+ Starlings squabbling over the mealworms! Lots of House Sparrows, Robin, Great Tit, Blue Tit, Coal Tit, Hedge Sparrow, Collared Doves and Wood Pigeons.
Made the Victoria Sandwich and a Banana & Pecan Loaf. Had scrambled eggs on toast for mid morning breakfast. Took forever to wash everything up and tidy up. Phoned both my sisters to wish them Merry Christmas. Didn't bother with Christmas lunch. Had a shower, washed hair and got glammed up just in time for the the Queen's 3pm speech. Drove to Lucy's and picked her up to come back to mine for Christmas tea.
Spent late afternoon and evening with Lucy, eating Christmas goodies, including the Victoria Sandwich, Banana & Pecan Loaf and the usual treats..... dips, humous, vege sticks, crisps, vege sausages rolls, Sherry Trifle etc etc. Did a WhatsApp video call to Vivien and Ray. Watched TV and in particular enjoyed watching the Berlin Philharmonic performing on BBC4. Took Lucy home at just before 11pm.NORFOLK BIRD NEWS & MEGAS!

CHRISTMAS EVE!
I was at work all day and we all tried to be as festive as possible for our patients and each other. It is an extremely difficult time for patients to be in hospital and just as much for their relatives who are not allowed to visit either. Roll on 2022!
Crashed and burned on the sofa when I arrived home and didn't even have the energy to cook anything. I was also supposed to make a Victoria Sandwich for Lucy's tea tomorrow, didn't do that either! So, I will be up early in the morning baking and probably not birding now. I will definitely be out birding on Boxing Day though – desperate to get out as not been out for ages, due to trying to cope with an ongoing health issue over the last few weeks.
HAPPY CHRISTMAS
Sending best wishes to you all – wishing you peace and joy, be it with your family and friends or spending it alone
