It is after noon. Makes more sense to me to make that into two words rather than afternoon. I’ve done the shopping and not bought anything that wasn’t on my list although I did buy two of some of the items on the basis that I wasn’t sure how much was required.
I’ve made it through another Christmas Market without visiting the Christmas Market. The nearest I got was the Morning Star which was rammed with people taking shelter from the cold and rain.
Terry did even better. He was staying at the White Hart which for those of you unacquainted with our fair city is right in the heart of the Christmas Market. It is however possible to get to the White Hart along Eastgate which avoids the market completely and this is what Terry did.
In the Morning Star, where we were fortunate enough to find a table, the foursome sat next to us kept putting off the moment of leaving the pub by buying another round. Several times. In the end it was the guilt of having come all the way (from somewhere else) that forced them out into the weather.
Today the weather is sunny with the occasional drifting cloud coming into view. Perfect weather to walk around the Christmas Market. I am disinclined to do this. It will wait until next year…
