A call to ban visitors from climbing on to the lions in Trafalgar Square would indeed be unpopular. The climb is a challenge resulting in a feel good factor if achieved.

Power NI
Big thank you to Power N I for their prompt response to our power problem. Brassy on the pole outside our house had corroded.
Eddie Reader by Candlelight
Headed out tonight to Open House event in Abbey Church, attend a few times a year but mainly on Christmas Eve for carols by candlelight.
What a surprise to enter the church to be greeted by candlelight. It was a lovely setting with subdued lighting on the stage.
Eddie Reader and her band were excellent resulting in a standing ovation at the end. Eddie entertained us with not only her music, some of which was from her time with Fairground Attraction, but with stories of her childhood in Glasgow. Altogether a lovely night.
Branded – but it was worth it!

Don’t know how many I have missed but the theme is the same, perhaps remembering 1690 is the only option left to us!
