We're away to Jersey tomorrow morning at crack of dawn, leaving house,
dogs
and nursery in the hands of various offspring.
We wish everyone a very Happy Christmas and new year and hope 2008 will
bring you all that you may hope for, above all, health and happiness!

May I just add to what Sacha has said as well.

We too are off at the crack of dawn to board Cunard's new Queen Victoria
for Christmas and the New Year with all our family as it will be our
Golden Wedding on December 26th

Cruising south to warmer climes returning on January 6th.

As we are taking all the family, who normally descend on our house at the
sea side to house sit for us when we go cruising, we have some wonderful
friends from the North Island, known to the inhabitants as 'England', and
they are making a Christmas Party at the Sea side whilst house sitting and
feeding the animals and birds.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all

Mike

Sounds like a fantastic trip, congratulations and a merry Christmas to all
