On holly

In today’s seasonal reflection, Sharon Byrne, our lovely admin and finance coordinator, shares the delight she takes in the holly tree in her garden:

“This is a photo of the holly tree in my garden. Every Christmas I look forward to making a centrepiece from sprigs of holly to decorate the dining table on Christmas Day.  I have loved watching the birds, especially robins, feasting on the abundance of berries the tree has produced this year. Let’s hope the old wives tale (that a berry-laden bush is a sign of a cold winter) doesn’t come true!”
