This is "Onbekommerd"!

Back in Cape Town

We are back in Cape Town. On Saturday night  we still had the very special Christmas dinner, which Janine and Gwilym oranised for the 4 of us plus those of our children who are in the UK. So Gwlym and Janine's daughter Severine and her partner Hamish plus Sean made up the crowd (Gwilym and Janine have a married daughter, Sophie, in Cape Town and we of course have Greg there). It was a wonderful occasion with many "Christmassy' highlights of which I would like to share a picture of the 'flaming' pudding.  Christmas in the UK is certainly very much different from that in South Africa, the 'atmosphere' is really there!





Flaming pudding!


You will have noticed that the last few blog entries are rather food-dominated, which I think is resulting in the earlier reported weight loss (thanks to the extra walking) having been nullified. We'll have to work on that in the new year.

On Saturday evening we left London and after a rather long journey via Dubai we are now back in Cape Town. It was of course especially nice to see Greg, I had not seen him in 8 months (Lyn saw him in August). We'll be here until 16 January when we return to London. In the meantime, Lyn has a lot of work to do and I'll catch up on some admin.
