This afternoon I went with two friends to the Purrple Cat Cafe in central Glasgow.  Most of the cats were asleep most of the time.  Even so, we enjoyed a tasty afternoon "kittea", some god chat and managed to photograph a fair few kitties.

Advent can be a bit like that, I guess - we set out with ideas in mind and then it's perhaps not quite what we expected.  This doesn't invalidate it, or mean it is lesser, it's just different. 

It was lovely to spend some time relaxing with friends, entertaining to watch such cats as were awake playing, fun to play 'spot the cat' as they have all sorts of hiding places, and good to chat.  The afternoon tea was tasty - and the scones ENORMOUS, so much so we took our, not exactly tiny, slices of cake home with us.

Whatever Advent might look like this year, hopefully when we reach it's end, we can look back and say, yes, that was good.
