Christmas Cards

I purchased my 2011 Christmas cards yesterday. I took a jaunt into town and, venturing in to W H Smith's, I spotted boxed cards of a painting by Joseph Farquharson (1846-1935) called Beneath The Snow Encumbered Branches.

These I rather liked, since they caught my eye, so I bagged three boxes (3 for 2).

Earlier I had been doing some research at the Linenhall Library in Donegall Square.

At Sawyers tight little emporium in College Street, their fine battered scampi was in at last, so I took a fiver's worth. Little tins of Barkley's "tastefully intense" cinnamon mints looked worth a try, so I impulsively purchased a tin.
