New Year - Welcome 2014 - Brussels

We spent New Year back in Belgium. We ate massive burger with chips, my favourite food, at the Comics Cafe in Sablon, then to see the lightshow in Grand Place, crepe with chocolate in a cafe' but even I was defeated from the big burger and then watched the fireworks at midnight. I was straight to sleep within 30 secs of getting back into the car. New Year's Day we went for a bicycle ride, for some reason I now need to walk up any small slight hill...After we had yummy lunch at Jenn and Philippe's with Florian and Audrey. Best wishes for 2014!

Happy Christmas - England

and yes here I am with my Tintin new hairstyle - well it lasted until the next day when I always have a wonderful slept hairdo all over the place. We spent Christmas with Grandma and Ti'pah. We did loads of things and had a great time, well fed as always and got loads of presents. We saw an excellent Pantomime of Jack and the Beanstalk with Paul Morris as Dame Trotter, superbly funny and I shouted at the top of my lungs, joining in. We met A. Vicky, U. Keith and Lauren at Disraeli's special Christmas decorated house at Hughenden, I saw Father Christmas' helper and with my mamã's hint talked of I need to use my ears to listen and not my mouth...We saw A.Vicky, U. Keith and Lauren again at Grandma's and Ti'pah's a week later with Sally, John and his dad - what a lovely time we had including making bouncy balls :-)
I watched Harry Potter 6 and 7 - lucky me - and went for walks to the playground, wave at the trains, shopping, cinema to see Frozen in 3D. We also went for a very soggy walk along the Thames in Henley. I got new boots, shoes, coat in the sales - well my parents bought them when they got more clothes for themselves :-)

St Nicholas

The morning welcome on 6th December - chocolate - do you like my old man's face expression?

We also had St Nicholas visiting the football ground where I practise Wednesday and play matches Sunday. We had a goodie bag and a new training tracksuit plus drinks and crisps as the usual after match celebration (or commiseration).
