The Small Hand: A Ghost Story is a 2019 film starring Douglas Henshall (you might know him better from the Shetland TV series). The story is about an antique book dealer who finds himself confronted with forgotten parts of his past. Part of it takes place during the Christmas season. This has wonderful atmosphere and some unexpected turns.

We don't generally decorate the entire house for Christmas, but The Husband has this Santa on his little roll top desk.

Because this blog does not consist of a single focus topic I chose the name Divers and Sundry where "Divers" means being of many and various kinds, and "Sundry" means consisting of a haphazard assortment of different kinds.
