Well, it’s been quite a year. We’ve moved continents, schools and houses. Shipped cars, furniture and dogs. Rallied in England, Scotland and France. Travelled here, there and everywhere. And it’s time for a rest.

I may post the odd post over Christmas, but I’m taking a break at home with inlaws and outlaws. A spot of shooting, a few fine wines and ale; a mince pie or three and a drop of good armagnac. A blast around the countryside in an old car or two, if the weather holds, a walk and a good pub lunch if it doesn’t.

A Merry Christmas and a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year to all.
