The winner of the Impulse nationals was in a DS boat and Mark got Grand Master, so overall a great result. Lots of interest in the boat and a few orders so all is good and definitely worth all the hard work to come to Paynesville. Bonne Annee to you Malcolm See you in September, keep the 21st free if you can as that is the only day we are all there together.

Phillips looks knackered - burning the midnight oil to get Christmas boats out I guess.

I've never met her but feel I know her through the posts. I've decided to do Christmas properly every second year so it was bought cake and pud for us this year.

I'm learning very fast that the memories I go beyond the call of duty to make for my children are far surpassed by the memories they make for themselves. I also picked up a $6 tray of peeled prawns from coles instead of lining up to be seen at the seafood coop and they were delicious. I think I'm finally starting to get it. Much love to you for the festive season.

I like the icing sugar footprints - but very sticky! Have you tried cornflour? Your Christmas table and menu looks and sounds wonderful. I made duck fat potatoes too - make them every year and always a crowd pleaser. I get all worked up before the main event as well and am so pleased the clock has ticked over to Boxing Day and if anyone wants anything to eat they can go to the fridge and pick over the leftovers - I'm not moving from the sun lounge xxHotly Spicedhttp://hotlyspiced.comnoreply@blogger.com
