I have put up some pretty lights in the window. Most people in this street so the same, and it looks very festive.

My three two dimensional trees will have a theme, one with the Three Kings, with camels and stars. One with the smallest stockings, stars, festive socks in miniature, and the third ...... with musical instruments, possibly.

Remember to wipe your feet on the Matt.

I don’t think @matticus will be happy if I do that

Some of my Christmas decorations have been acquired on holidays, in Austria, Sweden etc.

I took a guess that it was the Matterhorn near Zermatt.

Still a bit early to put up the decs here - I'll do that at the weekend. I always put up a selection of cat-themed stockings that I've collected over the years. And I've my diddy little 2ft tree. Oh, and the cat angel that a friend gave me about 20 years ago.

I was not intending to put the decorations up until the weekend. Someone is here for lunch on Wednesday, so I thought I would make a start. If I haven't finished by the time they are here, they can help if they want to, but I do not think they will help.

I spent some time in the kitchen and I now have a big crock of seasoned and rendered pork dripping.

Rest of mine is going in a spicy ragu tomorrow, loads of garlic, rigatoni and possibly a nice glass of primitivo

Going to warm up some tonight in those lovely cooking juices...

Speaking of which, it's time to feed the cats, and then it will be time to feed me.

I have been making a Hedgehog hotel today . I went out and bought some plywood , screws and glue. I will put a layer of wood that I have in my garage around it . One of the Hedgehog peeps recommend covering it with earth . That would mean that it would be difficult to clean it out . Also from the size of it it would look like a Round Barrow in our garden !

My favourite porridge oats is Flavahan's multi seed porridge, but it is about two or three times the price of the unseeded oats. I have therefore bought a small pack of sunflower, golden linseeds and pumpkin seeds, which saves a considerable amount. I won't bore you with the numbers.

Would you add the relevant percentage of nuts to the oats (in a large container) or add a tablespoon or thereabouts to each bowl each day?
