"W" is for the wired winter's wreath on the heath

ABC Wednesday is at the big "W" where we have a Christmas wreath and flowering basket in the lovely town of Stockton Heath, out Warrington way. That's heading a little westward from home but to get fully immersed in the Christmas spirit at this time of year I always I head (virtually) for the American Mid-West. 

By that I mean a selection of Garrison Keillor's A Prairie Home Companion from Decembers past and present. Dip into the archives section at the site for some melancholy wit unlikely tales from Lake Wobegon and a musical array which can include bluegrass and folk, ballads and wistfulness. Try the Xmas 2012 show for starters and also this December's batch. Wonderful.
