Christmas Past

If you're not already sick of Christmas and you want somewhere free to take the kids over the holidays, the Geffrye Museum in east London is showing Christmas Past until Sunday 6 January 2013, when the traditional burning of the holly and the ivy takes place in the museum gardens. All the Geffrye's middle-class period rooms are currently decorated for Christmas in styles that encompass 400 years (CLICK). Glued to your chair? Dithering? CLICK for a Paul Kerley audio slide show of the festive rooms in 2009.
