Christmas 2013

Happy Christmas all you Hatters!  This has been a busy household since December 17th when Amanda started our Christmas entertaining by cooking lunch for my Seaford friends.  There has been a continuous stream of people to feed and baking to be done.  Yesterday and throughout this week the house will be buzzing with activity.
We are so lucky so far not to be affected by the dreadful weather.  The only casualty so far is our beautiful tall eucalyptus tree which is leaning at a precarious angle and will have to be cut down.
I feel very sorry for those people who have no electricity or are facing floods or have their travel plans dashed.
On Sunday we went to a beautiful  service of nine lessons and carols.  It was a peaceful time to think of other things than the bustle of shopping and getting - atime to think of those less fortunate than ourselves and to remember those of our friends for whom Christmas will be a less happy time because of illness or loss of a love one.
Thank you all for staying with me.  Will try to be more regular and interesting in the New Year.
Best Wishes    
Jay May.
