Happy Christmas!

Hi all,

Well I hope you had a good christmas. As I type Kevin and I have just returned from our christmas up in Wem. Winter has hit the UK now and there is lots of snow around. Not in our area yet and luckily we didn't hit any snow on the way back down. We went up to Wem on Friday morning - very early, so we were up there by 10. Then on Christmas day it was off over to Telford to spend the day with Kevin's sister and family. Haven't spent christmas day with a four year old for a few years now - had forgotten how noisy they get! Then on Boxing day it was back to Wem as Kevin's aunt and uncle were coming over. Then on Boxing day evening Kevin got ill... No one can work out if it was food poisoning (both his mum and sister strenuously deny it was them!) or too much rich food but he was not a well boy. While Kevin's mum, dad and me sat and watched a frothy version of 'Under the Greenwood Tree' poor old Kevin was in the bathroom feeling very unwell.

So we had an extra day in Wem while he recovered but are now both very happy to be back in Surbs. Hoping for some snow, planning to hit the sales and go and watch King Kong - happy holidays indeed!
