Post Christmas revelry

Pete blogging on behalf of slack parents. ;)

We (Pete, Alex, Patrick & Harry) arrived at the farm on Sunday afternoon. The farm was full of visitors. There was - Mum & Dad, Ed, Squirt, Maverick & Charlie, Bugsy & Sheree, Sheree's parents - Ron & Gaylene, Les, Deb & Blair, and Aunty Mary and her friend John. (19 people)

We all had some Christmas pudding, complete with silver coins cooked in and everyone had to perform an act or answer a question, depending on which coin they discovered in their pudding.

Bugs and Les got an old tarp and the sprinkler and set up a slip-and-slide on the lawn. The big boys were the most enthusiastic sliders and the kids loved it too. Grandad also set up the wading pool and the kids loved sliding into it from the slippery slide. Other watersports included a water fight using water pistols, hoses and old gloves for water balloons. After the water sports there was a traditional game of backyard cricket.

Squirt cooked chicken chow mein for everyone for dinner.
