Merry Christmas, everyone, from a fairly new, but already hooked Mudcatter. I feel a bond already! Maybe I'll get a secret Santa next year! It's 3pm here in Sydney, lovely mild weather, which is just as well, as we are having roast pork, with prawns to nibble on to start. Both my kids (George and Samantha) are coming in a couple of hours (other people to visit first), as well as my singing partner Sue, my good friend Rhymin' Simon, and my flatmate David is cooking the roast. And my son's wife Michelle is expecting a baby in July, so I will be a grandma for the first time soon. AND NO BUSHFIRES!!!! So life's pretty good. Not much money, but hey, money isn't everything!
