Decorating the front door

Here's a photo of a lovely looking Christmas wreath - now hanging on my front door.

I bought it from Homeleigh Garden Centre in Hoo (on the Ratcliffe Highway). I like the style - the birds seem to appreciate it as well. 

The wreath I purchased last Christmas (below) was very similar and was also a big hit with the birds.

Let the festivities begin.
 

Snow beckons . . .

With the much anticipated snow potentially only hours away (expected overnight Saturday into Sunday), I popped along to Homeleigh Nurseries, Garden Centre and Farm Shop earlier today to get myself some road salt and a new shovel.

Lots of other people clearly had the same idea, as the place was buzzing. The proprietor Ron Thorne (pictured below) was on hand and happy to help everyone find what they wanted.

Another blatant advert I know, but in the form of a useful ‘public service announcement’! If you’re thinking about popping along tomorrow, they’re open from 8am till 5pm on a Sunday - and have plenty of shovels and grit.

Wherever you are and whatever you’re doing - wrap up, stay warm and keep a look out for elderly or vulnerable neighbours that might need some help and assistance.

Take care!
