John's parents and brother and his girlfriend Helen came to us for Christmas Day. As usual an efficient affair with none of the tension that sometimes family gathering can have! We gave Helen a knitting kit and I tried my best to get her hooked on knitting (to create a fellow addict!) and William also wanted to have a go!
Yesterday we went for a walk in Castleton to get a bit of fresh air. It was very cold but beautiful as usual.
We are now really excited about moving and have started to go through all the stuff we have collected over the years and it's a lot! So far we have disposed of 13 bin bags of stuff and all of it has been complete junk that have just gathered slowly in the cellars, drawers and cupboards. It's been wonderful to find old diaries, photos and letters and going through those have been great! It's also making us do things such as have fires in the garden, play table tennis and watch old videos of William as a baby, things we probably wouldn't have bothered doing if it wasn't for starting to slowly pack all things!

Very nice landscape! Interesting that you enjoy the packing... Has always been a nightmare for me. But perhaps I've had to move to many times during the last ten years.
William ser så stor ut! Har nästan inte känt igen honom. Tiden går så fort.
Ni har det så grönt! Vi har snö, 10 grader kallt och sol varje dag. Helt underbart, tyvärr så glömmer jag min kamera varje gång.
