little donkey

literally - this little guy was attracting a lot of attention at the Rowallane Gardens Christmas Fair.
i'd a lovely time catching up with friends at the rugby:

we visited some relatives on Saturday evening also, and even though we hadn't seen them in a while, we picked up right where we left off. Realising we're on the same page faith-wise was a pretty awesome moment too.

simple and quiet words

"Do not believe that he who seeks to comfort you lives untroubled among the simple and quiet words that sometimes do you good. His life has much difficulty... Were it otherwise he would never have been able to find those words."

A flying visit to London to see one of my favourite bands Placebo.

Staying in the lovely Kensington High Street, and enjoying the bustle of the city.
