I love to remember the birth of my Saviour, Jesus Christ, and I honour the God who sent Him.

Whatever your beliefs, I wish for you an increase in the spirit of kindness and hope, and a sense of joy and togetherness with those you hold dear! Loved ones may be far away and situations can be complicated, yet the opportunity to share sparks of positivity with others will always be there.

In case you’re still looking, here are some no and low-clutter gifts for Apple, PKM, and analog enthusiasts.

Back in 2018 I had a lovely time recording 3 parts for the Librivox community choir. Here they are, combined in sincere, clunky, mono a capella.

You can listen to the finished group version here.

This sweet Australian nativity scene (from this book) was a joint effort between myself and my oldest daughter. Here’s a high-res version you are welcome to download and print for personal use.
