  1. Awww…. That looks bizarrely tasteful! And tidy. And inviting. I feel I should pop round and sing carols outside your door.

    1. You'll have the next door neighbour's dog curling it's lip at you. Carmen keeps a tidy house, most of the time, though her washing and ironing leaves a lot to be desired. I would have preferred those Christmas tree ornaments to be all green, to mimic the Northern lights, I might tinker with them after Christmas though where am I going to get green cellophane from I don't know, oh and they are noisy too, they sound like someone riding on an exercise bike

  2. Is that 'Mind-your-own-business' (Soleirolia soleirolii) emerging from Santa's hind quarters? And did he tie-up the other Santa with that silver rope?

    P.S. I hope you have a nice tea!

    1. Having rooted through the kitchen drawer for the label I can confirm that it is a Soleirolia soleirolii, it's very forgiving if you forget to water it and ends up looking like a month old lettuce, a 20 minute soak and it springs back to life. S&M Santas doing unspeakable things to each other on my hearth, doesn't bear thinking about. Yes tea was good, saag paneer, vindaloo, I'll know about it tomorrow!

    1. Submissive Santa with his bulging sack, for naughty festive kinks. My maid of old work said they sound like someone turning over on an old fashioned spring base bed.

  4. I'm more a Bah Humbug kinda gal, but your decorations look lovely, sweetpea! Honestly, I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary, but then again, I wasn't wearing my glasses! xoxo

  5. Thank you Savannah, it's all Carmen's handiwork, most of the Christmas decorations are from dead relatives and every year Carmen brings out a Christmas card that was given to her by her Grandma back in the 1970s! Creepy vibes or what. Like you I couldn't give a frig about Christmas, all that fuss and bother just for one day.

  6. I especially like the polar bear shitting on the tree. That's my kind of holiday madness.

    1. I would pay good money to see that depicted on a Christmas card.

  7. What is that roundish creature lurking behind Santa in the second photo?

    1. It's a toad, the head lifts off to reveal a secret compartment, when I lived at my parents house I used to store my pharmaceuticals in it and special herbs, nowadays I keep window keys in it.

    2. I bet it's a cane toad. That kind with the venom that gets you high if you lick it.
