Festive Greetings

Festive Greetings to all!
Hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas day celebrations. Got to speak to Kev & Joan before they left for the Mountains. Also spoke to Kate and Hasi as he opened his present, and Anne, Steve, Clare and Lucy. I was planning to phone The Glenbrrok Isos on Christmas morning our time (your evening) to see how the day went, but had a phone call at 0620 to go to work. Didn't think you would appreciate a call at 1a.m. which is the time it would have been when I returned home.
Had a glass of bubbly whilst opening gifts. Thanks Jack, that was just the CD I had been wanting. They have been playing a couple of tracks from it on the radio here. The diary is beautiful also, and you can never have enough tea towels. Many many thanks.
I also had a gift from Maria - a beautiful pewter brooch of a circle of possums which has a celtic look to it as well. A very interesting and lovely piece which looks fab on my Welsh tapestry!
Last night (Sunday) Jules and I went into Swansea for Jules to meet up with a load of biker friends from years ago. Met in a pub in Swansea. They do it every year on Dec 27 apparently. We only heard about it last year and we were in Australia so this was our first opportunity to go. Was good for Jules to see them again and they were very welcoming to me. I drove so I was one of the few sober people by the time we left (only about 11.15p.m. - the pubs close in Swansea!).
Tomorrow we are going to my friend pam's house for an "Australia Day". She and her husband, Paul, have been to Australia three times - they got married in the Blue Mountains a few years ago. They have been wanting me to see their photos and video of their travels, so tomorrow is the day. Jules has been invited but told he can leave when he gets bored.
Look forward to reading on this page of everyone's festive frolics and gifts received.
Take care and have fun. Happy New Year to all.
Love Moo xxxxx
