Well, hi there Cuties from beautiful Newcastle, yes, we finally got back home after a long drawn out holiday.

As I've said in the previous post it couldn't have been a nicer place to be stuck than Queenstown, NZ.

Anyway, last night we met with all the family, except for Steve, Amy's husband as he had a bad head cold.
Jewls is still here and she bought Mum along, as we usually take her everywhere.
All the family were there for Dana's 40th birthday and boy was it noisy!
Pictures are following. Dana had a wonderful time and it was so great to have all of us together.
Today (Saturday 9.00am) I've got to do washing and cleaning etc, but it can wait. There's always something to do and I want to make a couple of towels for 2 special staff members that helped us so much whilst we were on holidays. One receptionist from the St. Mortiz hotel in Queenstown and the other a lass from Flight Centre. To say it was a holiday I won't forget is an understatement.

We are glad to be home. Hope you are all well and keeping safe and free from Covid. Love Chris
