A Strange Xmas

It's been a bit odd this year, and to be honest - I will be glad to see the back of Christmas this year...

Amanda's dad, Mike, is *really* ill... On Christmas Eve he was hardley able to catch his breath, his chest was rattling with fluid and his colour was mid grey!! By Christmas day, he had imprived a little, but was still barely aware of anyone else being in the room with him. On Boxing day, he actually woke up for a few minutes, and his colour had improved a little. The strain is really starting to get to the rest of the family.

Having said all that, some very nice gifts were recieved this year...

A Pair of Golf Shoes,
A Statue (of a Golfer!!),
A large 'Cup and Saucer',
A 'Container Gardening' book,
Jeremy Clarksons book,
A Second 'American Chopper' - Cody's Bike

And the look on Alex's face when he got, not only, his Golf Bag AND a Guitar, but also a bed for Edward was fantastic, to round it off he got his first wrist watch today...!
