Whilst it seems an age ago now was thinking that I'd briefly describe Chrimbo on the island.
Christmas Eve:
Carol Singing around the island
Putting up socks for elves to fill
Midnight candlelit communion service in the abbey
Christmas Day:
Socks magically reappear filled on washing line in the refectory. (Bookmark, fairtrade chocolate and orange :D)
Gingerbread hearts with our names on (kindly provided by Germans) adorn the refectory wall
Christmas services in the abbey
Wonderful Christmas Dinner, with fresh organic lamb from a sheep that had lived on the island
Secret Santa gift exchange
There's probably something I've forgotten, but those are the "special bits"
