Global warming on full blast: we had a picnic barbecue outside on Boxing day. It was lovely if a tad worrying.

Ribs and wine and everything's fine
Who would have thought that those old Lira might come in handy again one day?

I hope you all made it into the new year safe and sound and full of good resolutions and cheer. We celebrated with a pizza party and a huge bonfire. It was freezing cold out but the fireworks were very pretty. And we had the bonfire to keep us warm(ish).

Everyone got a turn at pizza making.
Hi there, come here often?!
Pik humped everything and anything that came his way. Mostly Mac.
Happy new year!
Burn away the old and light the way for the new.

In a few days we are back on the road once more: Canary Islands, here we come! There'll be volcanos, kite surfing, beaches and more. I'm just excited it'll be warm and sunny... We'll keep you updated!
