Daisy, I have made parsnip and apple soup in the past, it's nice!

Clover, I hope you soon warmed up.

That's right Oma, all or nothing with Christmas invites! We were quite prepared and happy to spend the day here on our own as we will see everyone on both 23rd and 26th. Then as you know we were invited to two houses DDs for Christmas Day a couple of days apart.
I hope you have had a nice day. It has been fine and quite mild at least.

The temporary post office in the library in very busy now! We have to work around all those queuing customers!

Crossed again Oma!

Uber and evening meal in the hotel are great ideas. You are on holiday, make things as easy as you can

Clover, I had a picture in my head of the wind blowing in off the sea and waves 20 foot high, trees blowing over and all sorts of damage. I'm glad it wasn't quite that bad, although you must have been cold in all that rain.

Gem, we enjoyed the parsnip and apple soup! It's good to hear your temporary post office is busy, but no doubt the queues will continue to be long up to Christmas.

Oma, you've had a good day, and getting an uber was the best thing to do. Enjoy your evening in the hotel to restore your energy for tomorrow.

It was lovely and mild today we didn't need hats or gloves ,
Market was very busy as expected.

We went for our meal and I wasn't really hungry,
B had Tapas and I just had a starter soup as a main,
It was carrot and ginger, now I'm not a carrot lover so didn't expect much but it was delicious,
Just the right amount of ginger to give it a kick, I would definitely eat it again.

I did have to ask the servers to move a large vase of lillies,
when we walked in I could smell them and said to B if they can't move them I can't stay ,
But the young girl was lovely and took them out instantly,
She said her oldest sister was the same so she understood.

Oma, what a lovely day you had.We like the Christmas market in York.Been a few times.
We liked the Lincoln Christmas market as well. They don't have it now for safety reasons.
They only had it for 3 days and it did get very crowded.
Its a shame they couldn't have run for longer,then maybe it would,t have got so crowded every day.

I enjoyed it in town,got hubby's Black Magic chocolates.
