Merry Christmas!

Leigh and Bart arrived last night after a nine-hour delay in Chicago. They were able to catch a flight out early Sunday morning after missing their connection Saturday night. This despite new blizzards in the Midwest and cancelled flights at Heathrow due to fog.

So, we're all set and ready to enjoy the next couple of days. We are all planning to go ice skating today at one of the many London outdoor ice rinks that go up this time of year. The weather is looking beautiful . . . somewhat milder than recent days. I got out for a run this morning and very little traffic. I'm working part of the day and making traditional Tom & Jerrys as my treat to the office. Maybe St. Paul's tonight!

Tomorrow is a big Christmas dinner with Scottish forerib and Lynne's family favourite, trifle. I'm sure we'll gorge ourselves, but isn't that what Christmas is for? Should get going to start all the festivities.

Merry Christmas to all!
