Squealers

The Christmas breakups have started, and last Saturday the Squealers had theirs.  

We met at Karen’s home where her beautiful Christmas Village is all set up ready to delight all, big or small.  But looking at the photos, I think Karen’s village needs a post of its own, so keep an eye out on Sunday.

In the meantime………………there was lots of food for both lunch (we met for lunch, usually it’s afternoon tea)and afternoon teaand in between we did pick up needles and threads/yarns.
