Harry & I have been out & about today. We had a hot chocolate & toasted teacake at Daisy Clough tearoom.
Then on to Barton Grange Garden centre for a potter round the massive area of Christmas stuff.
These little ones were watching these dancing singing figures….they nearly pulled the fence over in their enthusiasm.
Three good things:
1. The garden centre was so busy even on a weekday…two coaches parked up too. All very different from last year thank goodness.
2. No sleep last night but amazingly I have felt fine today. Makes me wonder if I slept more than I thought I did….all I know it was a very long night.
3. Corduroy trousers.
Ooh -- so sweet - don't the little ones love all this wonderland of colour actions and songs ! Nice to have a day out pottering together ! I was overwhelmed with the crowds in the garden centre on Sunday and being on my scooter I had to constantly watch where I was going !! Hope you have a better night's sleep tonight !
@beryl Me too Beryl….it’s horrid not being able to nod off! I’m not doing nearly as much exercise during the day….no three lots of stairs to climb for a start & very little housework compared with before.
Great excitement.. The 'creatures' don't look very Christmassy..
I often have sleepless nights but seem fine next day so you probably right we sleep more than we think.
Cute little people enjoying the fun.
Sorry you're having wakeful nights. I've been using some meditations on my phone which focus on breathing etc...on Audible. Usually helps. X
Aw don't they look sweet. It is a lovely time of year for kids.
I don't think we need as much sleep when we get older for some reason. We don't go to bed till about 11.30 pm and we are both up early. David is up earlier than me and usually gets up about 5.30 am.
I expedct it will get busy here in a few weeks. Since lockdown ended a few weeks ago, only fully vaccinated people are allowed to travel, but as from the 13 December anyone can travel here from other States. As we are a holiday place I think it will be pretty busy this Christmas.
@onewing you’re right Babs but we are late goers to bed too & Harry is up at 7am… me an hour later…I can manage happily on five hours sleep at the most ….I seem to have cycles of sleep patterns! Good luck with all your tourists, hope they behave!
A real fun shot, good to see them enjoying the display even if it wasn't one of the best! I have days when I don't sleep much as well, then occasionally I sleep until 6am!

I wished I could hear them and hey presto! How delightful. I think I'm awake for hours but my fitbit says I was asleep!
