TYPICALLY BRITISH CHRISTMAS WEATHER...

Only in the UK can we have apples on trees and raspberries on bushes in December, even some blossom and wild garlic has been spotted flourishing.

According to the weather men an extraordinarily (that's a long word) mild December has brought an unexpected crop of raspberries.

Apparently the normal temperature for this time of year is 6.7C (44F) but yesterday people in many areas experienced temperatures of 12 to 13C (53 to 55F).

So I guess that means a white Christmas is out of the question then. 

GREAT BRITISH SEWING BEE.....

THE GREAT BRITISH SEWING BEE CHRISTMAS SPECIAL...

This great programme is doing a seasonal special treat for us all with winner Ann and runners up Stuart, Sandra and Lauren joining forces with Saville Row's Patrick Grant and sewing teacher Mary Martin from the show.
