A bit of Christmas magic
I am a big of Christmas magic (well all magic really) and every year I try so hard to keep the magic alive. It gets harder each year, but I’m determined that the odd ‘spoiler’ from school won’t dampen my enthusiasm or the children’s excitement. Every year I get a little helping hand from The […]
