Queueing!

Our lovely village bakery was so busy all morning.
People collecting their Christmas orders, I queued up for almost an hour this morning!
When Harry went for his paper this morning at 7.30am they were queueing outside at that time of the morning!
It’s famous far & wide but quite a nice experience once I got through the door out of the cold....lots of chatting going on!

Three good things:
1. Christmas Spirit!
2. Turkey ready for the oven tomorrow,
3. Christmas weather...frost this morning & a beautiful clear sunny sky all day!

@julzmaioro @joansmor @mave Massive orders, I don’t think anyone has cooked anything themselves in Great Eccleston!! Ha ha, just joking folks!

Well done you for queuing (I simply hate queuing and am known to walk away !! ha ! ) the smells from the bakery must have been so enticing !

We had ordered cakes to be collected yesterday and guess who nearly forgot! My hubby's dad has been in hospital and was coming home so our minds had been elsewhere. Anyway I took the dog a walk and walked past the bakery at 2.30 which luckily reminded me as they asked if we could collect them before 3pm. I had to dash home with Sadie then and grab my purse - phew, made it at 2.47pm!!! The bonus was there was only a short queue! Have a very merry Christmas Pat 😊
