Xmas 2010

Alex enjoyed our family Christmas. It was almost a full gathering of the clan. We ate lunch outside in the beautiful weather and relaxed in the pool or playing cards in the afternoon.

Silly hats & all. Alex at the head of the long, long table. Very Relaxed

Poached Asian Turkey Breast, Mustard Marinated Eye Fillet of Beef & A fabulous Baked Ham

Fun in the pool. Water was beautiful.

Alex always enjoys catching up with everyone

The traditional Boxing Day photo before everyone heads off back home.

"Mickey Mouses" and other concoctions

Alex just enjoyed the end of year cocktail party celebration for "the village". Wonderful people, sampling all kinds of wonderful concoctions, from the very benign "yellow submarine" to the fairly lethal "Mickey Mouse". Alex sincerely hopes no-one's Sunday was exceptionally seedy.

Scene of the crimes

Nice swimming afternoon initially

Things got progressively messier

"No, Cath! I am NOT trying that green slime!!"

Lovely conversations with favourite people

A good night with the most amazing people who've made such a difference in Alex's life.

Wedding in Sydney

Life's been busy on the run-up to Christmas and the end of 2010.

Andrew and Kim's wedding was in Sydney early December. Alex had a good time and looked great. It was a long, hot day, but full of interesting new places and familiar people.
