So, in true Christmas style, I (Al) have a hangover and feel slightly delicate, however the fact that it is the first hangover in December is highly unusual.
You will be pleased to hear it is cold here, raining torrentially, altogether a very British day! We are wearing all our clothes, so look like we have eaten a Christmas dinner already, and as the weather is appalling we have had a beer before 12, with some other Brits. The guesthouse owner looked at us as if we were mad when we asked for a beer, and said in 20 years of running a guesthouse he had only served beer before 12 three times before. It is now four times.
We are attending to some light admin duties, arranging hotels, getting Christmas haircut – Guy – and blogging before we have another beer in a local bar we found last night, they sell lots of local Arak!
We have an appointment to call home at 6pm this evening our time, so Mum, Dad, we maybe a little merry by then!
Seasons greetings to you all, have a great day, we miss you all, and don’t overdo it now, will you?
Sounds like your having as great time, could do with some help with the port but battling through. Happy Christmas both! By the way why aren’t they called roscoe & pico
You need to ask the parents that one! I think it would be funnier, and will still imagine Si on bantock park calling them that anyway.
No Gin reviver’s???
Dear Uncle Guy,
I hope you are drinking lots of beer and having a nice time. I hope you go swimming and have lots of fun.
Lots of Love,

Hi Meg,
