The workmen who have been putting the Christmas lights up in the town this week were nowhere to be seen today but others were erecting scaffolding in front of the Town Hall. I was told last week the the balcony on the building was not safe so I'm assuming that repairs are being carried out before the Christmas decorations are fixed. The leaves are still on many of the trees and many are now showing their autumnal colours but that Christmas feeling is already making its presence felt not only with lights across the streets but also in the shops.
There was another feeling of the upcoming Festive Season today as our two younger grandsons came for a baking session where they helped make three cakes - one for us, one for our son and one for my birthday in January. As they cooked this afternoon there was a smell of Christmas even though it is still only October.
