Some snaps from Christmas in Yorkshire...

Christmas at home: it can be stressful for some, but for me, it's like a warm, familiar pair of arms wrapping around me. I did have one teeny tiny moment of 'I'm so glad I spend so much of my time in Switzerland' when leaving Tim's in Bristol to travel home to Brough: it involved Blue Line taxis, whose driver turned up late to take me to the train station, then got lost, and then stuck in a traffic jam that caused me to miss my train. He then became aggressive when I suggested that he waive my fare for causing me an additional train fare, and I had to flee from the cab fearing for my safety. Please avoid this taxi company at all costs if you are ever in Bristol! However, once home, all was wonderful.
