The Auctioneer was Jimmy from Esthwaite How who also sold three strings of onions and ended up without a voice.
A tense domino match between Matthew and his uncle Tony, advice is being given by a couple of old pro's. Matthew was victorious on this occasion but was defeated by our neighbour Elizabeth.

Hi, it was good to see that Santa had been sampling a few, well, quite a few by the looks of him, of Helen's mince-pies and cakes before he set off on his rounds. He certainly wouldn'tget down our chimney andI'm not sure theroof wouldhold him either. But where was his helper? The good Fairy?
Best wishes, keep blogging.
