The cider angel

Yes, a special gift wrapping for the bottle of craft cider I took as my Christmas gift for the work doo.

Dean models the cider angel. I think he preferred the wrapping over the present ;-)

Yes, I know, it's a winner and I fully expect to see Chinese made copies for sale in prestigious retail outlets like the Warehouse next Christmas. She got a little battered and bruised on the bike ride to work.

That wing covering stuff on the no.8 wire wings objected to the ride the most. Nothing that more sellotape couldn't fix - until the heat made it curl off.

The blue glasses are made of closed cell foam. The small piece of closed cell foam I sit on during stops when tramping is even smaller. I wrapped the no.8 wire halo with tinsel I took from Marketing's Christmas tree.

We had a good time. Lots of laughs, good food and drink. Then I wobbled off biked off and bought another camera battery, memory card and got my Christmas cards printed.

Sweet. It's the weekend, then only 2 more working days for me this year.
