Where has all the time gone? November 30th is over two months ago and yet the blog has remained static. Hopefully this is a return to form for Yours Truly and I will attempt to backfill the last couple of months without labouring too much.
Obviously the big calendar event was Christmas, or in our case 'Christmases' (not even sure if that is the correct plural...). Being that we were due to spend the big day in Spain with Fi's parents, we spent the weekend before with my parents in Cornwall. How about that for equality eh? Thankfully after the demise of the old digital camerea, I was presented with a shiny new, smaller and better one. Nice one Mum & Dad!
After the weekend it was all about preparations for Spain. These were all thrown into the air when we received an email from Ryanair stating that there was a proposed baggage strike at Girona airport on the day we were due to return. Now they stated that although they wouldn't be accepting checked baggage, they would still fly... This wasn't particularly helpful given that we were hoping to make the homeward journey laden with presents! Thankfully it all turned out to be a storm in a teacup - the strike was cancelled, not before we had arranged to come back 4 days later than expected though. Christmas in Spain is exciting - you should try it.
It seems that party life is rife in Spain. I suspect when we look back in the years to come, the most memorable will be the Christmas Eve party we attended. It was hosted by Andy Ball, the ext keyboard player from MUD - remember them?.... It was a Christmas Carol party and just in case you're curious, we did sing 'Lonely this Christmas'.... Legenedary
