The Christmas Street Party


Only two more sleeps till Christmas and we still have presents to wrap! It's been a busy party season, ending this week with our Christmas Street party. There was far too much food as normal, everything from rum balls to trifle and of course the traditional sausages on the barbie. William managed to keep up with the older kids, trying out their scooters and skateboards with alarming success and almost making it up the precariously placed jump ramp (eek!). The annual awards were presented - Andrew won the "Mad Dogs & Englishmen" prize for going out cycling in a storm when everyone else was running for cover. I won the Peter Brock Memorial prize for the fastest driving up the street (well we have got a big hill to get up!). It was a great night though, which saw William collapsing into bed at 9.30pm (closely followed by mummy and daddy!).
We're now undoubtedly full of festive spirit and wish you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year - we'll be seeing you on the webcam!
