At Home with the Hamiltons

Saturday, 29th December.

Bobby here in morning. Thank goodness took some of rubbish to skip, as I missed bin collection this week and it was overflowing! Sorted wires coming from hut which had fallen down and put new bulbs in wall lights.All the wee tasks John used to take care of.

Had happy afternoon at Helen's again. She had an "At Home" for Rory and Ian & Kirsten and Kenny as both weddings this year.Enjoyed meeting loads of people I hadn't seen for ages and food was provided by Ruth,school friend of Rory who has her own catering business.It was superb. Helen must be exhausted. with all the preparations, visitors,Christmas etc. Her house is super for entertaining, as people can spread out a bit. It has such character too and she has the knack of adding lots of interesting touches to it. Wee ones really enjoyed themselves . I thought they might have been bored, but they had great time. Came home with Arthur and Catherine.Margo & co. called in on way home. Made a cup of tea. Jonathan wants to come and stay with me on Hogmanay.
