Blue sky for Santa

Happy Christmas to all Blippers, whether you're having a summer Christmas or winter Christmas. We had a glorious hot sunny morning, a southerly change and now it's cool and pouring. Young ones out biking - they'll be soaked but everyone will be ready for Christmas dinner which we always have at night. Unusually an evening Christmas dinner was a tradition in both our families and one we've always kept.

Then it will be time for presents.

And memories of Christmases past, and of those no longer with us, but in our hearts, and enormous gratitude that our son and daughter and daughter's partner are all here to share it with us this year.
