Happy New Year
We got there before you, ner ner ner-ner ner :-)
We spent the morning helping construct a feast for 30-40 people, even though there were only going to be 12 at lunch, and four of them were children. Then we met distant members of the family, many of whom I've only heard about in family anecdotes, but they all seemed to be perfectly normal to me. In fact, many of them are really rather nice :-) Spent the afternoon larking about with the kids in the garden and we all got absolutely soaked, but then that's the point of a water fight, I suppose. Spent a peaceful evening nibbling at leftovers and wondering who on earth would eat the rest...
