Day 7 - What a Right Royal Carry-On! Gordons Way gets a peek into the royal household as the family get ready to help George celebrate his first Christmas. Kate is busy 'decking the halls' while William has a rest by the fire.
Day 6 - Reflective and with a theme of preparation, today's Advent Garage stirred the senses gently. Soft lighting, a lovely aroma and a focus for reflection. The garage had an Austrian feel and continues our trip around Advent in Europe as well as Oxted. Time to prepare (the whole point of advent). Thank you for these moments.
Day 5 - Sinterklaas visited Oxted from The Netherlands.
He is a traditional figure with roots in various regions of Europe, including: Belgium and Luxembourg; some parts of Germany and Austria; Switzerland and Italy. He is celebrated annually on Saint Nicholas' eve (5 December) in The Netherlands and on the morning of 6 December in the other countries. Originally, the feast celebrates the Day of Saint Nicholas – patron saint of children and sailors.
He is accompanied by Zwarte Piet. But today, they visited the good folk of Oxted.

Day 4 - Forget the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury, we had the Cuboid Gazebo in Oxted!
What an amazing ADVENTure in Chichele Road. An alternative 'White Christmas',
'12 days' and not so 'Silent Night' entertained the crowds as the jigged and sang along.

Day 3 - Hark! The Bluehouse café had many angles in attendance to sing carols and view the tableau.
Beautiful voices are always lovely but a song from the heart can not be matched! Thank you Bluehouse café and URC.
