Sunday 11th December

Had Tania and Ray over to the caravan for a BBQ and of course we had to have the biggest downfall of rain since we have been here. It rained non stop for a couple of hours and when it stopped the road in front of us was flooded (the 1 drain at the end of the road could not cope). We were sloshing around in it like a couple of kids - if it had kept on raining any longer I think we would have had the water running under the caravan and right through the annexe - as it was just the rain water was running through the annexe while we were having tea.

To get in the Xmas spirit we put up our couple of strands of Xmas lights around the caravan and the tree at the front, then went for a walk around the park and saw some wonderful display's of lights made our's look very humble but we are the only ones in our street with Xmas lights.

Had a baby Butcher Bird come and visit us for a little snack. Have not seen it since so hope it is alright.

Saturday 17th Dec - have Xmas organised which is not very hard when we are away from home and are looking forward to spending Xmas with Dawn, Ric, Tania and Ray at their home. Well it is now only a week away from Xmas so will wish everyone a Very Merry Xmas and the Happiest of New Years, all our love Sue & John
