Have a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I will be taking a break until next year.
See you in 10 days, Mairead.

All the best of the season to you Mairead and to the long suffering Dennis. I feel his pain, I really do.
Seriously though, warm greetings to you both.
Aidan
Oh my goodness I have been very slow in my replies, thank you for your good wishes, Aidan. Denis says thank you too, but he’s busy getting me a cup of tea!
Happy New Year Mairead!
I am a friend of Nolene, and she very thoughtfully gave me your blog contact – it has made me smile. I look forward to more…..
Hope you feel better soon
Cassandra
Thank you Cassandra! It’s lovely to hear from you and I’m delighted Nolene gave you my details. Thank you for your good wishes, I am still coughing and sneezing but now that the holidays are over and everything is back to normal I think I’ll recover much more quickly! Happy New Year to you and yours, may it be peaceful and joyful. Mairead.
