Happy Christmas Eve! The Nordic Gnome was delighted with his traditional bowl of porridge and is also making sure all the presents are prepped and ready for distribution.

The Nordic Gnome decided to visit Newgrange for the winter solstice. A truly magical sight - the sun rises and the light reaches into the mound.

Nordic Gnomes are traditionally caretakers and helpers on the family farm or holding. So as a rule considered…handy. I suppose everyone has an off day. Christmas lights did come up eventually though.

The Nordic Gnome disappeared yesterday, no word at all, then I get a ping they decided to take a stroll up to Boa Island in Fermanagh for a chat with the Lustymore Man an old friend.
