November 2025

November has dawned bright and breezy here.  We are close to the Donna Nook Nature Reserve, a six mile coastal strip which in November and December hosts a colony of seals. They come ashore to give birth to their fluffy white pups, which can be seen clearly from the viewing path. We hear their plaintive cries on cold mornings when sound travels farther; a reminder, along with teatime sunsets, and well-stocked log baskets, that we are coming towards Christmas and the close of the year.

Always trying to keep ahead of the game, I am now stitching for Spring! So rabbits and lambs and flowers are in my sewing box at the moment, as the Christmas stock is now completed.  I am adding more stock to the Christmas shop and other departments every few days, but Christmas stock is limited.
