Somehow, even though the Christmas decorations looked the part, it didn't feel very Christmassy in Melbourne. Hearing brass bands playing Christmas carols in summer sunshine, just sounded incongruous. And, of course, it was still bright and sunny at six o'clock.
Even when it eventually got dark, it felt too warm to be christmassy. Here is Bourke Street.
But now I am home in Bury St Edmunds and we have put up the decorations in the house, it is quite cold and it gets dark early.
And the Abbot Consort are into rehearsals for their annual carol concert (7:30 pm on Tues 19th December at St Mary's, Ipswich - on the corner of Stoke Street and Belstead Road). Yes, now it feels like Christmas is coming.
