We're stuffed! Do you fancy any sausage rolls n sausages?! Nan and Janice have each had one of their 5 a day (a slice of lemon roulade with cream!). All the roulade has gone... we're not sure where! Everyone has lots of new toys to play with (including some gardening things for G2 and Gethin). Gethin, Bec, Jean, Terry, Mum and Dad are off to the Mill at Sonning tomorrow for dinner and a show. Still a bit of snow on the ground, but mostly slush now! We really enjoyed your Christmas message - Nan didn't quite cry, though apparently she did when she got your flowers!!! Have fun in your camper van... Hojpe it's air conditioned!!! We're all going deaf at the bangs of party poppers at the moment - Matthew is health and safety executive making sure we are not pointing them at anybody! Speak soon, lots of love and hugs! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Happy Christmas Nick and Kathryn! Thank you for the lovely flowers - they are beautiful and very Christmassy! I bet Santa doesn't leave snowy footprints in Australia! Our snow is finally melting - yippee! It was difficult to walk on the snow this morning because some rain had fallen on top of the snow and then frozen - it was lethal!
We're having steak and chips for Christmas dinner - I wonder what you and Kathryn will be eating today. You'll have to let us know!
Bye for now, lots of love YLM xxxxxxxxx

Hellloooo Nick! Happy Christmas! Enjoy the sun - we can't stand up on the pavements and it's nothing to do with the wine!
Nan & Grandpa
HAPPY CHRISTMAS NICK. Missing you. Thank-you again for the flowers. Lots of Love Nan and Grandpa.

Computer crashed before I finished below!! Happy Christmas! Santa's in Alice Springs at the moment, did you see him as he passed you a few minutes ago?
Ice slowly melting here, enjoy your hot Christmas. To you BBQ turkey?

HE'S COMING!!!!! We've bought a really large turkey, too big for us so we're going to post you some. Look out for a rather smelly jiffy bag!! Might put some of Nan's trifle in there for you too.
Matthew says he hasn't done his letter to Santa yet - what is it about men, can't get their act together until the last minute. I've told him everything will already be loaded on the sleigh so it's too late for a letter!
Hope you have a great Christmas & New Year - see you in the spring!
Love from us xxx
What hides in a bakery at Christmas?

Santa gets to you before me! I hope you've been good this year and get some presents! Don't take all of them mind - leave some on the sleigh for me! I've been tracking Santa on this website: http://www.noradsanta.org/en/index.html Caz and Emma are on their way to Exeter now and should be here soon after lunch. It's really icy here... like an ice rink outside! Got a large gammon joint for dinner tonight... my fave! Hope you're ok xxxxxxxx

These sums are getting harder....Would you believe -15oc here tonight? No wonder it was chilly out. Plenty of snow on the ground and looks like i'm walking to work tomorrow! I will send you some pics, all taken last day or 2.
Have a great Xmas and NY. I am off to Edinburgh for it and back up here for Hogmany. Enjoy the heat!
