Yule Yomp II

Our big Christmas Walk. House to house with a drink and snack in each. We started at 11am at Paul & Debs and finished at Simon and Tory's about 10 hrs later. Click the map to make it bigger....Our house was stop number two. Simon, Geoff and Emma getting stuck into the Port and Pizza.

The kids trying out my drum kit. Luckily I had the silencers on.

Heading back to Emsworth from Westbourne. Down a very wet Lumley lane in the dark. Maybe welly boots next time.

Most of the gang outside Lumley House.

Back : Ellie, Debbie, Danny, Karen, Carolyne, Tory, George, Simon, Becks, Gus, Scholes, Emma, Chalkie, Paul. Front : Harvey, Travis, Joe (pram), Jack, Gus, Indy, Tom, Lily, Abi (pram), Lisa. Behind the camera : Clare.

We finished with a chilli at Simon & Tory's house at 9pm. Another great Yuletime Yomp. Thanks to Clare for the photos.

Christmas Day - Amberley

We went up to Amberley for Christmas. Will, Rachel, Freddy, Nell and Reggie's new house. We tortured the kids by taking them out for a walk before we opened the Christmas presents...but there was snow! Here's Karen, Lisa, Mum and Dad.

Lisa's School Nativity

It was the second and final performance of Lisa's School Nativity play today. The audience wait in excited anticipation as the children get ready. Lisa is in the front in the yellow dress...Lisa and the rest belting out 'We Wish You a Merry Christmas'...

It was a great show. Merry Christmas.
