Emily and James: We've been out and about a lot this year, having acquired Merlin passes and travelling the length and breadth of the country (well, some of it) to make the most of them. We've enjoyed stays at Alton Towers and various trips to Thorpe Park and Chessington, as well as Sea Life and Lego centres in Manchester and Birmingham and a fun day out in London. We also found time to visit a couple of youth hostels and enjoyed a week in Warwickshire at the Trailer Tent and Folding Camper Birthday Meet. Other highlights of the year include a stay in Portmeirion for Emily and James (a surprise for James who is a big fan of The Prisoner), a brewery and distillery tour early in the year, Emily becoming godmother to the daughter of an old friend and the beautiful wedding of our friends Douglas and Ruth. James continues to teach piano at Daniel's school which has been an immensely rewarding experience. His second novel is coming along nicely, but after sending his first manuscript off to as many agencies as he could find and getting rejected by every single one, he's now convinced that either the book simply isn’t very good, or he's the next J.K. Rowling awaiting a sudden discovery. The truth may be somewhere between the two! Emily is still working at the Baptist Church, as well as co-ordinating calendars, organising holidays and making birthday cakes. We wish you all the very best for Christmas
and a Happy New Year! xx |
