On the first day of Christmas, my true love sent to me
A partridge in a pear tree
The Twelve Days of Christmas start on Christmas Day and last until the evening of the 5th January – also known as Twelfth Night. The Twelve Days have been celebrated in Europe since before the middle ages and were a time of celebration. I may not have a partridge or a pear tree, but I have selected 12 photos from December / January to get me through this period.

I wish all of you a very happy festive season in whichever way you choose to celebrate it. Thank you for your likes and comments this year, they are always very much appreciated.
A lovely idea for festive posts – I look forward to the remaining days 😀
Beautiful pictures!
Thanks Pit. From the illuminations in a nearby fishing village.

What a great idea. A lovely picture and my first time to see anything written in Cornish, I think. I hope you and yours have had a happy day.
Nice idea! Looking forward to the next 11 days. Happy Christmas!
This reminds me a lot of last year’s display at Temple Newsam in Leeds. We didn’t get to one this year.
What an excellent idea for a photos series Jude! Hope you have had a wonderful Christmas and very best wishes for the New Year! xx 🙂
What a great idea! Looking forward to browse through your lovely photos!
