As always this year has gone so fast! Id love to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their support over this year and wish you all a lovely Christmas! Those that have been following the blog for a while will know that I started out this year recovering slowly from a brain injury after a hit and run and have ended the year with a new children’s picture book for sale and a new baby on the way so its been a mad one (but very exciting!).

Anyway back to the task in hand! There are SOOOO many things on this month whatever your location across the 3 counties and whatever your budget. If you know of anything going on or have an event you would like me to add please provide me with the details in the comments section at the bottom of the blog

Don’t forget to follow me on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter for more up to date information and while you are here why not visit my other christmassy blogs 🙂

Have a great month!
