We're open as usual, but the Gallery has been dressed for Christmas:
| a lovely Nordman tree - from up the hill at Legananny |
| the fireplace |
| we've moved the big table into the window |
| and the settee in front of the fire - very cosy for all! |
| charging around! |
| singing jingle bells |
| Ernie's first snow.... |
| ice crystals on the cupboard |

| Slieve Garron - with famine fields picked out by the snow |
| looking South East to County Armagh |
| Slieve Gullion |
| a beautiful Mournes Panorama |
| using antique 'Hovis' tins donated by Caroline |
| even turkey sandwiches taste great in this bread! |
