Wonderful Christmas

People say that Christmas loses its sparkle as the kids grow up, but we find it just gets better and better. You should have seen us 8am yesterday, six people aged 18 to 56 in Cathy's room, opening the stocking pressies.

The last few days have seen games, puzzles, treasure hunts, challenges, great food and drink, midnight service, a bit of shopping in the sales, and - maybe best of all - crazy golf at Bournemouth.

It's not about expensive gifts or big nights out or 'perfect' dinners. It's about love.

Hear hear! Sounds like you had a perfect Christmas :) Thank you for all the lovely Christmas gifts, they raised lots of smiles, especially toots' Ritchie Gray pen, which she is using right now! And Earl Grey has been put to good service in the kitchen already ;)

Excellent! That's what I like to hear. So glad I didn't muck up the labels - have been worrying about it.

Hope your Christmas was grand, too.
