We had some rain through the night but it looks set to be nice today.
A few things to do today then we're walking into town at 5pm to watch the Annual spectacle of the Eve of Kings Parade.
Lots of floats and the people on them throw sweets to the watching children (and adults!
)After this we'll find a bar (they'll all be packed!) and have a beer and a bite to eat.
This is the night children leave a pair of shoes outside their front door; if they've been good Papa Noel will leave gifts for them.
No point me leaving any out then!
Have a great day everyone.
It's so dark in here still, we need the light on 
Rain or not, I'll be out later for a walk, probably up to Sainsbury's for milk and fruit, all the fresh stuff is running low as I did my big shop on Thursday last rather than Sunday. Becks is off to Cheltenham to the dentist's for a check up, I could go with her I suppose but the shops there are too tempting and I really need to rein in the non-essential spending a bit this month 
) walk from house to house to bless said house and occupants. Usually two adults and three children, with the kids being dressed up as the three wise men and each recites a poem and in return is given money and/or sweets - money to the church, sweets to the kids (sometimes also a bit of money).
