9 November 2008 - Becky & Clem's wedding

The gods smiled and the rainy weather of the week before cleared up for the weekend and the wedding. Gloriuse day and night, with clelebration that were very 'clem & bec' casual, relaxed but very thoughtful. Celeste stayed until sunset and then went back with the kids and the grown-ups had a great night! Mental imagine of the night: mum, dad and everyone groovying in a dancing circle to 'Oh What a Night"

4 November 2008 - US Election and first roll!!

C's first roll took us (and her!) by surprise... All watching the US election results coming in (over before it began!) with kitten on her new (so aussie) skeepskin rug. To be honest i think the roll was more by accident than design and may have been helped along by a small nudge by Mum
