All right

Standard
Tuesday 21st December 

It's the shortest day
And the longest night
The winter solstice
Heralds more daylight
Return of the sun
Everything's all right

Love you both so much

So much to do

Standard
Monday 20th December 

There is so much to do
Many people to see
Crammed into a few days
This festive jollity

Love you both so much

The setting for lunch today with my sister and niece, overlooking Carbis Bay beach
Elaborate chandelier
Salmon and crab roulade, turkey with all the trimmings, and a delightful dessert of berry crème brûlée, clotted cream, shortbread and twisted chocolate

Reaching the sunshine

Standard
Sunday 19th December 

I'll be reaching the sunshine
By walking through the shadows
Holding on to you safely
The pain, no one really knows
I smile at the thought of you
With love, my heart overflows

Love you both
Forever and always
Precious sons

I won an Instagram competition for a Festive Feast in a local restaurant. Three courses with Christmas cocktails, yummy 😋
Christmas cauliflower nuggs
Buffalo turkey strips and blue cheese mayo
Piggies in blankets with crispy kale
Saucy Santa burger: beef, turkey and pulled pork, with fries
Carni-V veggie burger and fries
Key lime pie
Full moon over the harbour
Christmas lights on the pier
Market Place and Fore Street
Market Place

Thankfully

Standard
Thursday 16th December 

Lost in thought
To support
All those dreams
So it seems
Far away
On replay
Recurring
And stirring
In my mind
There I'll find
Family
Thankfully

Love you both so much
Beloved sons

A sky filled with waves

Standard
Wednesday 15th December 

A sky filled with waves
An ocean of clouds
Delicate painting
Fading light enshrouds

Love you both so much

Porthmeor Beach
Painted clouds
Clean waves
The Island
Cloud reflections
The harbour

The winding road

Standard
Tuesday 14th December 

The winding road ahead changes
And then the journey changes you
Many more memories are made
But some are left behind, too

Love you both so much

A sunny harbour this morning

Waves

Standard
Monday 13th December 

They're forever running in
And rushing up the shore
Waves from the deepest ocean
Always coming back for more

Love you both so much
Darling sons

Looking across the putting green to the Island
A good swell today
Towards Man’s Head
Surfers enjoying the waves
Hang ten
Quiet in the harbour
Much milder today

Closer

Standard
Sunday 12th December 

Closer than you think
Impossible 'til it's done
Tiny steps, moving forward
Peacefulness has begun

Love you both so much
Precious sons
