Above all else, I wish all of you a peaceful time over the holidays, where ever you are and whoever you may be with.
My last (paying…) guests left on Tuesday. What a cracking end before the holidays; two lads from Berlin, who were an absolute scream. Not that I really know who the real ones are but they almost instantaneously became know as the Chuckle Bros. This has me reflecting on our first six months hosting, and all the lovely people we have met, some of whom I would love to have around the dinner table together for an evening. The foul ones have disappeared, except to laugh at or about!
The non paying guests arrive tomorrow and will also be fun, despite everyone I know having heads full of snot!
On that graceful note, we are retiring to the pub for what will undoubtedly be a debauched evening on gin. And snot…
Merry Christmas to all, its time to assemble my granddaughters Dracula castle, no idea how my daughters going to fit the 5’ x 4’ monstrosity in the car going home.
We are enjoying the guest free holidays so much (due to guest cancellation) we may block them off every year. Do we really need the money that bad??
I paddled my canoe this morning in absolutely beautiful water, paddling toward the golden light stream cast by the rising sun… yet still enjoyed chilly winds blowing off the snow capped volcano at the same time. Water temp is warmer than the air. Lovely!!!
Now we are relaxing having a second cup of coffee and watching for whales off our lanai. I’ve heard them but haven’t seen any yet.
Beautiful beautiful Hawaii at Christmas is truly a blessing!
Merry Christmas from Australia!!!
Quiet Time, Busy Time, whatever it is… have a Great Time slight_smile:)
Having 2 guests arriving this afternoon, “warned” them already that I have an international festivity here, 22 previous students from Italy and France, so a bit noisy… they are happy to join in like every year!
Merry Christmas!!!
Happy Christmas everyone! I just wrapped the last present and now having a small nightcap before bed. It’s so nice to be guest-free until the 31st!! Although it will quite a job to prepare the room again - I seem to have filled it up with all kinds of crap in just a few days…
So lovely. If I posted a photo of the view from my place it would be grey, raining and a slight mist. Not even any snow In fact, it’s unseasonably mild at 11 (52F) degrees. People will be out in t-shirts and shorts.
OMG…you’d better get crackin’! The scotch tape won’t even have time to seal before they’ll be up and opening their gifts. The wrapping paper won’t even have time to crease at the corners. …
