MEERY CHRISTMAS!

to everyone, 

we started our day, 

the same way as millions of families, opening presents,

then a walk to Steve and Kai's home,

their Christmas tree and presents,

a quick pose,

a 'Cheers!' with kai,

and with Diana,

let the feast begin! and what a feast it was, for the main course turkey, beef and all of the accompaniments,

then crackers,

Steve gets the hat,

 and then time for presents,

from Steve and Kai,

Steve and Kai had kindly brought me a selection, 

of brightly coloured shirts from their recent trip to Thailand,

just what I wanted,

Diana,

and Kai were also opening up their presents as well,

Diana was delighted with her silk scarf, 

and vouchers for her favourite shop,

what could be better?

and another from Jeab,

and from Steve, my favourite tipple, a Kraken,

and still there were more,

lots more!

time for desserts, light the Christmas pudding,

and of course Christmas cake,

one slice will do nicely,

Kai,

being the perfect hostess,

meanwhile Steve and myself,

were getting down to the dynamics,

of lighting the brady,

which went swimmingly well,

but we did go just a tad overboard,

with the brandy, well these things just have to be done,

I helped a little by added a a spoonful or two,

time to cut the pudding,

it looked and was delicious,

and what better than another bottle of bubbly?

'Cheers!',

today we were using just Diana telephone to take photographs, my Lumix is not very good with indoor photographs,

Buddy popped by,

Kai and Diana as happy as ever,

then back to the presents,

so many for Diana,

and guess what? I enjoyed myself so much,

I nodded off!, what a wonderful afternoon and evening, Steve and Kai making everything just so nice and so much to eat and drink, many, many thanks to Steve and Kai, arriving home it was feet up for a nightcap before we were off to bed.
