Been a while since my last post so this is a sort of catch up. I'm starting last Thursday with a meal in the Crawfordsburn Inn celebrating Bill and Catherine's 40th wedding anniversary. Great meal and a lovely night out.

We all went back to Carl and Mavi's house and we stayed there overnight as Friday was my day off.

A local pheasant arrives at Carl's back door every day for a feed.

That evening we celebrated both Reuban's first birthday and his Aunt Victoria's birthday. That night it snowed.

The following weekend we went to Cooke Centenary Church where Lilian and Hazel were singing, Faure's "Requiem" and Vivaldi's "Gloria" with the Belfast Philharmonic .

Last Friday Rick and Katie arrived with Reuben and we all went to the swimming pool.
