A new member from Lordshill today at Phyll's ; our subject was Christmases Past.As always, reminiscence ranged with abandon over the last 80 years. Father Christmas was real then, so we wrote to him.Presents were small and simple but food extra special.Decorations were homemade and living trees 'acquired' with a spade in the boot of the old Ford. And in hot East Africa, children ate generous Christmas meals while wondering what on earth was a robin in the snow !
We meet at Phyll's again on Monday January 11th for more entertaining memories from 2 till 4pm.
