Hi Di Hi Bloggers,
 
Last em before Santa takes to the sledge and commences his ride into the the hell we all call Christmas, its not the day, but all that leads up to it, for all those working it is particularly hard as the balance between the onslaught of  crimbo pressy shopping , made a lot simpler this year by the sound of it in the UK as the down turn has bought one blessing at least MFI has gone bust, along with a few others on the high street so that will mean less shops to visit,and less crap kit wardrobes the assemble for those DIY inclined amongst us.
 Ah the glorious day, stuffing the bird putting the pud in the oven and all those thing we do Crimbo morning, whilst trying to drink the entire EU wine lake at the same time, its no wonder Crimbo dinner tastes so good, for those with young nephews, nieces sons and daughters it is particularly harrowing, the four thirty call to the Santa sack ! then the tearing of wrapping paper howls of joy from the smalls and strong coffee for the ones sitting around as the flurry of little arms demolish an entire rain forest of wrapping paper.
 As a well known anti-Santa I have been known by two certain young men in London to have defiled Santa in many ways over the years, sorry boys I'm not there to do it this year, new venue down under unfortunately has arise but he wont escape ..
 
On behalf of the crew of Zephyranthes two of whom are out camping somewhere in the Wop Wops we wish all of you out there a happily Christmas and thank you all for your support over the last year , cruising will resume in the new year as we are going back to the Bay of Islands ,picking up the anchor first ! and cruising the bay in late January
