It was on the eve of Christmas... Well Nearly

Well it's all over bar the shouting so to speak. Sandra and I helped decorate the church in Blacktoft on Saturday and clear all the snow from the path so people could get in with out breaking multiple limbs en route. It was the Christingle service last night for all the kids Sandra took 4 of our Grand children and they really enjoyed singing carols and generally having a good time, this was followed by a party supper and a chance to talk to people who she hadn't met for a long time. I stayed at home and watched The eagle has landed for the umpteenth time and Top Gear which is the funniest thing on TV. May have a couple of Photos to add later when I find a lead for my camera as it's with the rest of the kit in Assos.

I Think we are all prepared now for the festive event we are having Chris (our middle son) and his three kids for Christmas dinner and Sandra's dad. Sandra's dad still isn't driving after dislocating his shoulder three months ago but hopefully they will clear him to do so when Sandra takes him to the specialist in early January, in the mean time we are using his car to get out and about so it's saved us having to hire one while we are home so it's not all bad news.

Three weeks today we will be on the plane back to Athens. We have decided to stay near Gatwick airport overnight on the 10th as this means that we will be more alive when we finally get back to our beloved Assos. This current cold spell, although magical to look at through the window is just making us realise more why we are really at home in Greece.

Merry Christmas and a happy new year to all.
