Well, this is a new year and not far into the new adventure, so I thought it was about time I got blogging again.
We've been in Cape Town since October, but returned to England for Christmas/New Year, so that's where I'll start, in the cold and deep snow of December 2010.
This was the scene we woke up to on the day following our arrival at Andy's Mum's house in Walsall. :
We didn't take the car out for three days, so on Andy's birthday, five days before Christmas, I added a candle, ribbon and 'Happy Birthday' to a tiny fruit cake that happened to be in the cupboard:
Andy always looks forward to a Chinese take-away meal when we go home, so we rang our usual place and asked if they were delivering, despite the deep snow. He was delighted when they agreed to venture onto the estate where his mum lives and bring his favourite dishes. It really made his birthday special!
