So this is Christmas, 2010

Christmas Memories 2010 :

· Seeing the extended family grow in number and meeting some of the “next generation”.

· Watching my older cousins getting thoroughly tested by the “next generation”.

· Attempting a Christmas shopping expedition with a couple of my mates – failing - and ending up sitting in the massage chairs at DJ’s before capitulating to a couple of pots of liquid cheer.

· Succumbing to buying hundreds of dollars worth of “dead sea minerals” from a beautiful Israeli girl (she was an excellent salesperson, mind you).

· Watching the Australian cricket team win a great 3rd Ashes test, only to be incinerated to ashes on Boxing day.

· Losing my grip on the family cards trophy.

· Catching up with missed friends.

· Eating a magnificent array of flora and fauna over a few glorious but gluttonous lunches.

· The rain.

My warm wishes that this festive season is a happy one for you all.
