Hi Sam and Cerys, hope you enjoyed your sunny christmas, even if Cerys had to work. I am surprised they were open on ChristmasDay. Belated happy birthday Sam, we couldnt sms you as there wasnt much mobile coverage in Tasmania! We had a great time there, though the weather was a bit wet at times. We had a weird Christmas Day as we were travelling the whole day, got back to Sydney at 10pm. Thomas a bit upset that Santa hadnt visited and left him anything, so we arehaving a late visit from Santa tonight after a quick trip to the Sales! We told T that Santa couldnt find him as we were travelling! Your tree looks very like the one we have, but more tastefully decorated as a 7 year old boy is not quite so artistic! Did you enjoy Avatar, we want to see it too.

love from all in Sydney xx

G'day Sam and Cerys

Merry Christmas from a cold and frosty Leamington Spa!

Uncle Mark Bradbury is snoring on the sofa and your Mark is drinking tea to soak up all the alcohol. Jared and Aidan are playing FIFA on the playstation. So a traditional Christmas scene.

Message from Sally - "Show us your tats" waiting for the picture in photo album!

Message from Nia - "I hope you had lots of presents"

Keep eating the doughnuts and have fun.

Love from all

Mij says woof woof - I am really enjoying being driven about in your car by Mark who has much better musical taste. The BMW is nice and clean and ready to be sold so I can't go in it any more with my sticks and muddy paws. I'm just waiting for Nick to clear your room so I can sneak in there and sleep.

Enjoying your blog - Mij and Mij's chauffeur
