  2. Eight years really, Wow!! Wantage does look beautiful and I always love places dressed up with Christmas finery. I remember my first Christmas in England (no snow) but so pretty and London was incredible. I have ornaments (in Australia) that I bought at Harrods in the 80's. Have a wonderful Christmas and yes I got your card and it's beside my computer on my little writing desk I'll take some photos today and do a post about all these lovely Christmas wishes. Next year I'll be sending them all to you xxx
