time to get stuffed

Festive buying proved slightly tricky this year as the central heating repairs took care of cash put away for other things.
It made gift chasing more tricky but the job is done and just wrapping to accomplish.
I am looking forward to putting decorations up  well actually being able to take down one I missed removing from last Christmas, after the required superstitious year it looks really dusty.

Found time to work though - Frank and Ruth now appear in the latest painting - I just need to put Deb in now to complete all the figures, some details below.

January is usually good for painting - and this year the tax returns will be easier giving me extra enjoyment of the paintbrush and paints...
