I ended up taking a longer break than I wanted to over the festivities. I'm afraid the Dreaded Lurgy struck all and sundry, and I didn't feel like doing much for a while.
Then it was my turn this year to do all the cooking. American Daughter-in-Law took some time out, and went home for Christmas - first time she's managed it since she came to live over here. With Son having to go into his London Office frequently, it meant I had two very willing little helpers while I was doing the Christmas cooking!
If they weren't sitting hopefully by the kitchen door, then we were out for walkies! Anyway, I thought, nevermind, if it's as mild as it has been the past couple of winters, I'll get out in the New Year and see what I can find.
It's cold. Even with heated gear on the bike, it's been too cold to go anywhere. According to the Met Office, it'll be a little warmer next week........................Here's hoping.
Anyway - I wish you and yours a very Happy New Year, and safe travelling.
