Rugby; Light: Trees

  Glos Rugby

Rising from the Shed voices full of glee,

All the rolling RRRRs are in ascendency.

Through muck, sweat, grime and mud,

Blood and bandages are in fullest flood.

 Pushing  and shoving  and making their way,

Irresistibly forward to give them  the day.

 The line is crossed and the ball  ground,

The stadium erupts in  full-throated sound.

The victory is gained; they gave them a licking, 

The Cherry and Whites have made a rich picking.

Yesterday (09/ 12 /'18)  we visited Westonbirt Arboretum  to see the Christmas lights in the trees. The night was, not too cold with no rain so,  an ideal temperature for walking the especially prepared mile circuit. To avoid crowd buildup, we were given an allotted time. In our case 17:40.
Here are some shots I took of the trees.

As you can see it was a stunning visual event, often overlaid with appropriate  music and electronic soundscapes. Sometimes lights flickered and turned on and off and changed colours.
A night to remember.

And so it comes to the close of the year and the deep joy of Christmas beckons us all.

So to finish lines from the Gloucestershire Wassail:

'"WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS

AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR.

A POCKETFUL OF MONEY

AND A CELLAR FULL OF BEER."

Many Blessings to you all. Here's to 2019.

WiFi for now,
