And from me to everyone, festive greeting for whatever you do (or don't) celebrate.

My family's round me and I'm starting to feel festive, at last! :lol:

Beautiful pics. A wonderful Yule to you all, and as the Wheel turns, may our thoughts turn. From tomorrow, the nights become shorter, the Goddess shall meet the God, and the wonder of nature shall return to us in rebirth.

Blessed be, one and all. Wassail!

My last paid job involved being in regular contact with people from all over the world and of lots of different spiritual beliefs, so when we wanted to send Christmas cards we thought long and hard about what would be a religiously neutral good wish. This is what we came up with, and I now extend it to all my Ishy friends:

Season's Greetings
(It took us ages to think of that :lol: )

I hope you all have a fantastic time. :santa:

What beautiful pictures. Thank you so much for sharing them.
Have a wonderful Yuletide!
We all have two gifts we should try to use as much as possible - imagination and humour.
Imagination compensates us for what we are not.
A sense of humour consoles us for what we are.
And wisdom tells us not to worry about it!
