Christmas Festivities

Wasn't High Street so well decorated for the holidays. So many lights and other artefacts, with Christmas tree so rife. Everyone shop-windowing, hardly a friendly gaze. Elated with so many presents was my wife. Yet how we have forgotten our life of strife.

The Christmas holidays can, indeed, make us forget the strife in our lives...at least for the time being. Enjoyed it, Victor.

Wonderfully penned, Victor. With all of the turmoil in the globe and the emergence of the omicron virus, we are grateful for the diversion.

Window shopping is a real delight, especially on festive occasions like Christmas and for a time we forget all our tribulations of life. Beautifully put !

Something about the Christmas holidays that takes us away from reality if only for a very short while...Delice

With all the strife in the world, we welcome the distraction. Hope you sorted things out at the bank. Tom
