Wishing everyone out there a very Merry Christmas, whever you are - I think we all need a decent break and celebration after everything that's happened (and is still happening) this year!

It's just me and Mrs Mayfurr (and Anton the Sheltie) here at Te Whare Mayfurr this year, so it's a nice relaxing day. And it's a nice warm sunny 21C day... so it's a traditional (southern) Christmas!
(the only way I'm ever going to get a "white Christmas" here is if I somehow get an airdrop of industrial quantities of Bolivian marching powder :-) )
