My final set of photos includes a particularly bad snap of window number 17 at 32 Hyde Vale, which was one of my favourites but those houses are so grand and their front gardens so expansive that I couldn’t get close enough for a good shot. You might just have time to get along there yourself before the end of the day, but if not you’ll have to take my word for its being one of the best of all. (You could, of course, also go and look at the official photos on adventwindows.com.)
I don’t have time to go for a walk today because we have to squeeze in all the Christmas TV we haven’t caught up on yet, and finish all the Christmas food. Tomorrow, though, in a belated “new year, new you” bid, I am going for a swim at Charlton lido. Wish me luck.
Day 17: 32 Hyde Vale. Terrible photo. 
Day 18: 68 Crooms Hill; art made by St Ursula’s School. I think they should keep this one up permanently. 
Day 19: 41 Egerton Drive. I am tempted to decorate with glitter angels next year. 
Day 20: 5 King William Walk, another of the most beautiful spots in the town centre. You can’t really see them here, but the lights are covered in miniature angels. Minus one point for not being lit the first time I passed, so that I had to make a second visit. 
Day 21: 67 Maidenstone Hill, a sweet road I’ve never been down before and maybe my favourite window of all: two people making Christmas cakes together via Zoom. 
Day 22: 9 Royal Place, an antipodean message. 
Day 23: Richard I pub. A Christmas village made from empties. 
Christmas Eve: the tree and east window at St Alfege Church.
Glad All Over
