Christmas

As ever the children prospered greatly this Christmas. No big present, but lots of smaller bounty. Favourites include Bananagrams (which really is excellent), Torchlight (Sam’s highlight, despite costing less than a fiver, and I have to confess a certain weakness for it myself), and a copy each of DragonQuest IX. Unfortunately Claire contracted man-flu from her brother, which developed into proper flu and left her knocked out for several days. On the bright side this left the rest of the family free to spend excessive amounts of time on computers.
