We went to Wellpark Garden Centre to stock up on nuts & grain for t’birds, and have lunch.

After a very yummy lunch we found ourselves transported to a jolly, if slightly surreal, world of polar bears & penguins

Trippy snowmen and Christmas trees

Reindeers serenading Mike with…. ‘Baby it’s cold outside’

There’s a lass there who takes photos of folk by a Christmas Cabin backdrop ….

..and she was kind enough to take one of us in a Christmas version of the classic seaside photo cut-out board

I should point out that, as with all of these pics, this was taken on Mike’s not-so-smart Smartphone – NOT on Nicola’s very good camera!

Finally, maybe not particularly Christmassy, but I covet the whole display of….whatever they are!

a small display shelf of 12 areas with different lit up round and oval shaped glass balls in them

The Wellpark Christmas Extravaganza is a hoot – catch it while you can.
