I JUST LOVE THIS DEPICTION OF CHRISTMAS ON TYNESIDE
I reposted this on the TES website this time last year. It was met with derision from many TESSERS. But I love this wholesome glimpse of Christmas at Chez Detters.

Saturday, a warm and hilarious family gathering with mother in law, brother in law and partner.....Sunday, daughters, husbands and grand-daughters convene at our house for a loud and happy afternoon culminating in a capella carol singing round the piano which brought the neighbours round with requests for Silent Night and The Angel Gabriel, then all the family to Nine Lessons and Carols at our local church, where my son read a lesson with aplomb, understanding and relish.....yesterday, final preparations for the festival and in the evening, playing the organ at a carol service for an old friend whom I have known since she was six weeks old and who is now a vicar in the next parish but two.....and today, an early start with our son opening his presents, an afternoon with in laws and nieces, and tonight Christmas dinner with the family, cooked by me and enjoyed by everyone.....
