More present wrapping today, as we are meeting family at the farm shop café to swap Christmas presents. We won't open them then and there, but carry them off to put them under our own trees as home.
BB added some more baubles to the tree while I was cooking bubble and squeak and scrambled eggs for supper. The cards are waiting to be strung up round the room in a day or so.
I've written all the ones for the mail, now there are just some friends and neighbours to do for delivering by hand.
.....
This is the antiphon for tomorrow, Saturday 20th December;
O Clavis David, et sceptrum domus Isreal,
qui aperis, et nemo claudit; claudis, et nemo aperit:
veni, et educ vinctum de domo carceris, sedentes in tenebris, et umbra mortis.
O Key of David and the scepter of the House of Israel,
who opens and no one shuts, who shuts and no one opens.
O come and bring out the captive from the prison-house, him who sits in the in darkness and in the shadow of death.
