Happy New Year Everybody

I had just slipped downstairs for a bit of supplementary clearing up after the open house New years eve drinks and nibbles(John had done the major work after I was away to my bed)and I thought that I would be the first 'virtual' first footing visitor....although I should be a redhead carrying bread(so you won't starve)and coal(so you will always be warm)so consider that I have arrived bearing these gifts.
Mount Ventoux looks fabulous, frolicking in the snow would be fun, I am reminded of the sledging escapades of our youth on Chinnor hill. For the last few days we have had the most perfect skies, sunrises and sunset, clear and crisp with star and sickle moon just like the story books of childhood. I have had to stop the car on the way to and from work just to take a long look.I think 2009 will be a good year despite the evidence to the contrary. Happy new year everyone health happiness and wealth to you all much love Cathy xxxxxxx
