Tis the night before Christmas, and all through the house not a creature is stirring not even a mouse, so the story goes. This one appears to be eating the food left out for Santa this evening We have just come back from a Christmas Eve party at Simons, and all feel very tired and very full. Our first taste of ham for the festive season. I sat at the table too long and my knee must have got stuck in one position and was very stiff when I got up to go. Still I had my physio this morning and won't be going back now until four weeks by the time we go away for three and the days inbetween, do I sound happy about that to you, I should its enought to make me want to celebrate Oh Red I am glad you liked the Christmas card, the bird on the front was our English Robin Red breast. Do you have those in America? It is a real English Christmas bird. We always put them on the Christmas cards at home with the holly and the red berries don't we Tigs. Of course over here the Christmas Tree is the pohoutakawa, that is the traditional New Zealand Christmas flowering tree. It has big red flowers on it and they come out just around Christmas Time. Tiggs I hope all your shopping is done, well, I know how well organized you are so I know it is, and all the seating will be in place for your big day to-morrow. I would love to be able to just "pop" in and say Hi and share a mince pie with you. Oh wouln't it be lovely if we could just all have an hour to-gether to do just that. I can see Red nodding from here. Oh it's really getting late now, I think Jasmine has gone off like a light, very quickly, she was very tired, it has been a long day for her. So now on with my santa hat and creep to the foot of her bed I have allready filled the stocking so now I just have to put it quietly on the foot of her bed ready for her to wake up to it in the morning Well I am off for a cup of tea and climb into my nice warm bed. Today has been really cold and drizzle rain, so it looks like I am going to get my English Christmas after all. No snow, but mustn't complain as the weather will match the big roast dinner and Christmas pudding. Wishing you all a happy Christmas Day to-morrow, will be thinking of you all and wishing you a very merry Christmas. |
