Turning Up The Heat This Christmas

It's a little under 3 weeks since Tom arrived and our first Christmas as a three.  This meant two things, the first being that there was no chance for a holiday lie-in and the second that it was a bumper present year!  I'm not sure Thomas realises how lucky he is to get so much amazing stuff from people he has yet to meet but it was something we certainly appreciated!

Summer has really arrived with the temperature topping 31 degrees and the evening so far showing no sign of cooling in a hurry.  It is now our 4th "hot" Christmas and despite this, I'm not sure that we are getting that used to it.  Christmas lights and songs about snow do not really seem to fit that well, but it is still great to have a couple of days off closely followed by another couple for New Year and the 2nd.  A mid-winter Christmas makes far more sense as a break from the cold and dark though for our mid-winter we will be back in Blighty, flight specials come out in the new year and we will be watching out for them closely!

Happy Christmas to you all!
