Christmas raffle

Dek Christmas raffle always contains good gifts, I have had a few years of drought which had been corrected by winning 3kg 24" chocolate Father Christmas 

Busiest time of the year

December is always is a busy time of the year, but this year it seems to be more hectic than previous.

Ever wondered what happens when a beanbag has a hole! well its like an indoor snow storm. This was a good idea at the time, until Katharine announced she had to go to work and we had to clear up the mess!

Fun for all the family.

A cute November picture thrown in, to remember the visit from the Davies family, and to remember Rebecca's caring side and the beginning of her army.

School plays are always a big hit with grown ups this time of year, to see what connection they actually have with the Christmas message. This year was a daughter in a caring family that welcomed the lonely stranger.

The finale and one content happy performer.

Rebecca & Jacob play was about two time travelling spacemen on there quest to find the true meaning of Christmas, they came across a shopping mall and strictly come dancing, so I guess they were close on there success! Rebecca played a narrator and a turkey which she shortened, so she became the 'Turkeyrator'. Jacob swapped his role from a joke teller to a ballroom dancer.

Rebecca in the narrator role.

Jacob swooping across the dance floor, with Ellie.

I think Jacob scored a SEVEN!!!!!

The Turkeyrator is back!

First of many Christmas parties was with Katharine and the Nothe Tavern team, meal was nice, quiz was a disaster, alcohol was plenty!

Clive, Jasmine, Georgia, & Nina

Arlee & Ash

Katherine happy to have tried the Venison....  did somebody say more wine!

At the cocktail bar - Someone forgot to tell me I had dentist at 9am in the morning - was not the best idea in the world!

A few days later was my department work party, a bit more sedated, mainly due to the people, but then again we did start at 2pm and finished 10 hours later!
