XMAS DINNER AT THE VILLAGE

Xmas Dinner is on tonight. Most people have their lights up now so the village will be well lit. Not environmentally sound but so nice for the peace and friendships feelings at this time of the year.
Most of the other events are organised and we have had some already. The "CATS" lunch was at Nicholsons on Tuesday and was excellent. The pool is being re- furbished and it looks like the group might be forced to break up. I suggested get togethers here every quarter and that seems well received.
On Wednesday we had our Xmas get together for the Mah Jong club . Even Trevor came( though he went home early )and it was a lovely evening. The drink flowed freely and there were a lot of nibbles.Everyone was very jovial.
Busy making costumes for my angels (!!!!) for the carols in the "domain" here. The girls are angels and Riley a shepherd.That's happening on the 20th, Thursday.
Picking up strawberries for everyone on Thursdays. I pass it when I come home from Vicki's and my Vietnamese market gardener man & lady are so nice. Lovely and sweet , the product, and only $5.00 or $6.00 a kilo.
Minded Bella & Sarah last night and tonight Sarah has her dancing concert, no doubt we'll see the pics on Mum's blog. Zoe did well at her concert last week and even won the trophy for most improved at Tap, she was impressive.
Doing some cooking in preparation of having the 5 kids for tea on Thursday and some Chrissy things. Not good for the back, all this standing but what can one do??It has been pretty bad and I even did not walk this morning, which is highly unusual but then it will be a big night.
New years eve is being organised too a progressive dinner with some of the friends here and then go to the village party, should be good too.
