We’ve had a wonderful few days. It’s a tough job getting all those dinners in in such a short space of time but we’ve once again risen to the task most admirably. Concentrating on cooking and eating is a great way to relax, not the healthiest perhaps, but very effective.

Josie left a cup of milk, a biscuit and a carrot for Santa on Christmas Eve. In the night Santa left fluffy unicorns On Josie’s and Sophie’s beds. On Christmas morning Josie called me into her room:
“Daddy! Daddy! Has Santa been and eaten his biscuit and had his cup of milk and fed the carrot to his reindeers?”
“I don’t know my girl, I haven’t been to see.”
“Maybe he has Daddy.”
“Josie! What’s that behind you?”
“What? [finds unicorn] Daddy-I-think-he’s-been-here-it’s-a-unicorn-to-play-with-in-the-car!”

She duly inspected the teeth marks in the carrot to check that the reindeer had chewed on it and Christmas morning began. We have loads of pictures that I will post when we get back to a broadband connection this weekend.

Merry Christmas all who wander here.
