    Yeah, we've got mangos too, with home made strawberry ice cream for pudding. Xmas pud is also available.

    I want some of that ice cream! :D

    Merry Christmas all.

    The 20 have bgerd off thank Goodness. I'm whacked, absolutely ruined.

    It was very unhelpful that it was raining today as the kids should have been eating in the garden. What I really want to do now is drink a couple of bottles of beer and sleep until the cricket starts tomorrow.

    Merry Xmas all. I am as knackered as Generali. It was 35C here today and there was a distinct lack of any breeze whatsoever. We were at a house with no aircon so there was no respite. It was brutal. I sweated a lot and was generally laughed at by some Australians. The heat has really knocked me for six. Luckily I am now in the direct line of fire of an aircon unit, thank god.

    Merry Christmas all. Just took the dog for a walk.

    Park's a swamp. The ditch that separates it from the next park is now a stream and there's a bit of a lake where there shouldn't be one.
    Thanks goodness I'm up a hill!:beer:

    I see- it's this one here
    ;)

    I think we got at least one of these. It's not that bad from memory, especially for the price.

    It isn't an iPad or Nexus beater though; but would anyone expect it to be?

    (Don't ask me what it is like now ! It has been stripped down into bits, much like a few others bought in recent times).

    Oh, Merry Xmas to one and all too :)

    News from Chez Kab is that "the bird" is overcooked. I suspect the oven is not to blame, it's pretty new. Time for a new thermometer perhaps. (still, better over cooked than under with turkey I guess).

    I wouldn't worry.

    We will still be talking about an impending drought come next May/June ! ;)

    I've been Money Tipped!
    . :). Dh got lots and lots of beautiful alcohols for his cocktail obsession. We have been mainly drinking sugarplum royales. Yum yum. I have discovered I can force down fizzy wine ( the flavours are intact but as if black pepper has been liberally spooned over the drink. Odd but not as unpleasant as I feared. I managed three glasses so far anyway. ;)

    I am not sure it's not alcohol fuelled when I say i am so fond of you all, I hope you all have good days ( including mr vivatifosi who can enjoy a day in bed being spoiled by his wonderful wife).

    Hiccup.
