The flower sticks seem like the perfect gift for boys around the age of yours. The pencil and pen stories made me laugh! Boys are wild, but fun. I always love the pictures you take of the sea over there. It's so beautiful and mysterious. Like the disintegrating pier.

He probably thought we'd take the knife away, but we didn't, we just warned him to be more careful. Now, if his sister had been the one to cut herself, you would have heard the screaming all the way over there where you are, that's the difference between my two!Jennifer Hayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04685253944514672324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6235841642149423068.post-720437870230265832016-12-31T09:05:16.005+00:002016-12-31T09:05:16.005+00:00drone attacks happened here too. it's amazing ...drone attacks happened here too. it's amazing how well they shred tinsel............<br /><br />I resisted buying a whittling knife and chose a fire starter kit. probably more dangerous in reality.driftwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11416170414524297337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6235841642149423068.post-40639959267649259122016-12-29T12:33:34.896+00:002016-12-29T12:33:34.896+00:00No blue lights and sirens, then?

We didn't manage to convince anyone to come out in the storm with us so it was just Richard, the dog and I facing the outside world on Boxing Day. Definitely the best day of the entire Christmas period. Enjoy the remaining festive days! We are gearing up for the biggest ever Hogmanay party... not sure if I can quite cope with the thought. xxChristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11883091348839145603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6235841642149423068.post-77819835578153080632016-12-28T16:08:43.143+00:002016-12-28T16:08:43.143+00:00Pencils.
