Festive House.

This is Alexandra's house, I couldn't get all the decorations in as my car was in the way.

Alexandra spent Christmas Eve with us as Peter had to work until 10pm!!

This is the first Christmas that Alexandra and I have had off in years.  I spent the morning cooking mince pies and cheese straws, and it was nice  not to feel the pressure of having to go to work.  I really enjoyed my baking time.

A mixed emotion day, sadness for fellow blipper Fisherking, who lost his wife on Monday, and joy when I heard from a friend that she is to become a grandma for the first time.  That's life, of course.

So fellow blippers have a Very Merry Christmas, and give your family that extra hug.
