My Children have all gathered at my house now for Christmas all grown up adults.
When they were little children we used to play this every Christmas and they wanted it on over and over again.
Today they told me to put it off - Very Sad Growing Up

JUNE - Your post 5:54 - Wonder when we will see Apollo again.
I will see Oscar (His Parent) on Bioko Island in early February and he will probably migrate back home with me.
All Apollo's sibblings are in Equatorial Guinea custodian of some local children bar one Blue ANN - Annan who is keeping Annie company in Edinburgh (Remember Karen introducing Annie and we all gave her a doll). Now she has loads of dolls and an Osprey.

KEITH! Those are unreal! Those are professional - how could anyone put a knife in one. What is the inside like???

CC - I hope you mean the cake - Generally the inside is great - it is a very rich fruit cake but when I cut it tomorrow I will give you a sample of the inside in a photograph. It was my late mother in law who taught me to make it like this - she was an excellent baker - thats why I kept going round to her house after her daughter - and she fed me :).
Hi Keith - YES I meant the CAKES! I look forward to seeing the inside - it sounds quite colorful inside. How do you get the icing to be so smooth? It looks poured on...
I'm back home after lunch with friends and attending early Christmas Eve Service (our church now has three).
It is about 7:15 here but already past midnight in the UK. I will go back & read everything and make some comments, play all the music and add some "Likes" along the way.
Hi JS, sorry didn't make it back on here this evening, still baking & a bit weary too! Cake still needs decorating, couldn't find what I had in mind in shops yesterday & everywhere far too crowded today! Added to it though, choc bics/almond shortcake/gluten free choc cake (for my Niece)/mince pies ... Ice cakes & make sausage rolls tomorrow morning & then, after cooking a roast beef dinner, I will down tools & take presents to my lovely boys, Byron & Felix - the lights of my life, lucky me! Then Felix (17 months) will sleep over with me whilst the others go to a party & will swap him over with Byron (five & a half) on Saturday as it will be his turn to sleep over ... So will still be pretty busy but playing a lot!
If I had had the time, I was going to post two songs ... Merry Christmas Everyone & Nat Cole's Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas as they would have been a good way to convey my greetings to you all! Look after yourself & have fun!
