Tuesday after Christmas

Strange night. A storm rattled through in the early hours, with rain clattering against the house and very strong winds attacking in gusts across from the beach. This lasted for an hour or more, then disappeared leaving a still, bright, clear and very cold early morning.

Urban-cub and Sir Lancinglot are due to visit today. Let's hope that U-c's back is improving enough for her to enjoy herself.

U-c and S-L turned up late morning. We had super day, starting with th eopening (belatedly) of Christmas presents. We all did very well, and everyone seemed very pleased with their gifts.

After a delicious lunch we settled down to a Pink Panther DVD. C-c and Sir Lancinglot got mixed up with some alcohol and diving apparatus... and the evening was spent with Trivial Pursuit (convincingly won by the Silver Vixen and U-c) and the board game based on Who Wants to be a Millionaire.

C-c finally gave in and went to bed, and I think we all retired soon after midnight.
