This year’s Christmas decorations are already up and, therefore, so are my two new Christmassy regiments; The Mistletoe Guards and the Midwinter Fusiliers! Handmade flags (by my daughter) flying, I first assembled them proudly parading on their specially made plaques:

Suburban Militarism 
A fine display for Christmas amongst the mantelpiece greenery.

I think they’re a great idea and nice to see them in place on their plinths! 🙂

News just in – the Midwinter Fusiliers have already had to close ranks and form square to beat off an attack by one of our inquisitive cats. I think they might have won their first battle honour.
