Merry Christmas!
A very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Like most people I'm looking forward to a well-deserved break over the festive period, but there are lots of our fellow citizens who still have to work and care for others.
A old friend of mine is a dialysis patient and will be in and out of hospital every few days for his regular treatment.
So a big thank you to all those who keep essential services going while the rest of us get to put our feet up with family and friends.
