Christmas in July...

Hosted by my mum at her house in the Southern Highlands... friends, scrabble, pie & crepes are all essential ingredients.

When having a blog pays off...

Patrick returned from the UK bearing gifts last week - mine was a brilliant kids book "Jour de Pêche" by Laurent Moreau - lucky me!! And even luckier there are no words in this book, which could have been tricky as I know not a lick of french. I've worked out so far that the title means "Fishing Day", though I might have to double check this with Patrick! 

Happily his present to NP kept us entertained for most of last week with marathon sessions of Risk. Quite addictive in a despotic kind of way.
