Christmas Eve

Still recovering from my weird bug and unfortunately Luke was struck down with similar symptoms overnight so he didn't join us for drinks and chats at Matt and Emilie's beach hut.  Vats of mulled wine were hung over open fires and we had entertainment from the spectacular winter sun and a very long sunset. 

Back to family for the evening and last minute preparations, it felt very strange to be saying goodbye to my brother after dinner who was spending Christmas day with Elena and her family.
