Merry Christmas Everybody . . . Slade

Last evening we waited at the airport for TLD to arrive.  A flight came in before hers and I was struck by how demonstrative people were.  I think we are a reserved lot of the whole but last evening it was 'Love Actually'
I had promised her dinner on the deck with a gin but the wind and showers put paid to that.  Always good to have her here. 
Rarenga means fight   Tau Mai means I arrived  Tau is the verb meaning to land, come to rest, settle, and there were some others.  Thank you WWW
