Well, I have had my first christmas dinner and Father Christmas came to visit. My nephew Samuel got a globe to follow my journey, but I'm glad he doesn't come to my house often ... the mess he made with the glitter that fell from his coat! But I was thrilled with the new messenger bag he left for me.
and now that it has snowed and the weather has turned crispy-cold I am half pleased to be leaving for summer time in the South Atlantic. Hey, believe me, I am under no illusion that I am off to Antarctica!
I've not done much else except catch up with friends and eat like a lord, including an early Burn's Supper! I've only got days at home now and really need to look at all the clothes I need to pack. I've got a very generous baggage allowance, but that does include 9kg hand baggage and my laptop probably weighs most of that! so I need to be ruthless.
But all of that can wait, I've still got quite a bit of socialising to do!
