Finally got down the south coast to meet our new grandson Hamish.
He has doubled his birth weight and is a very pretty baby.

Christmas day was just, Graham, me and his Mum. And Miss Lizzy and Teddy of course.
The crackling was amazing and I cheated with a low fuss dessert.
On boxing day we had the rest of the family and ate all the leftovers. As well as our body weight in cheese.
Repeat of the ballerinas!
New for 2020 is The Jolly Trolley.
Which is a little tram driven by Santa.
The sound of it rattling up and down the tracks has driven Graham nuts over the past few weeks!
What is that lurking in the background?
The Tardis! Don't know where the Doctor is, she must be in disguise.
I probably should have tidied the house before taking a movie!
Never mind, just ignore the messy bits Dear Readers, and sorry its a bit wobbly!
Hi there my Mum's Dear Readers,
Its me, Miss Lizzy here to share my Christmas triumph!
Do you remember Christmas 2019 when my mate Ted and I hunted the Christmas cheese?
Here's a reminder...
Well, thanks to the Goddess, 2020 is nearly over!
And the world will never be the same again...
Its nearly Christmas, but first it's..
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIMBA"
The tree is up.
Anyway,,, here is Christmas at work.
I packaged and tied bows on about 60.
'We wish to expresso how tea-riffic you are'!
