It is 9pm here in London, Christmas Eve.

A friend will be arriving soon.

Later we will attend Midnight Mass at our local church and welcome Christmas Day and celebrate the birth of a very special Baby.

As well as putting up festive decorations around the home, many like our family set up models of the Nativity so that we remember the true meaning of Christmas time.  Yes Christmas is the commemoration of the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem in a manger as there was no more room at the local inn.
