We hope that you have all notes a terrific day and look forward to catching up soon.

This year was mainly about Virtual Reality (VR) in the Rust household with Oculus Quest being the main attraction – however, mum and dad had a little fun at the boys’ expense when it came to finding them on Christmas morning. Their boxes contained a rather nice cardboard VR headset for use with a mobile phone together with a clue from Elfis (that’s right, the cheeky little elf came back to mess with the boys 😁) When they finally found their real VR gifts after following Elfis’ clues, they were delighted – then spent pretty much the rest of their day as can be seen in the image below – in their own little VR worlds with the odd shout of displeasure from the youngest when things weren’t working in his favour – no change at the inn then it seems.

The four legged boys were in with the fun too as they wore their Christmas jumpers for most of the day, as you can see Puggle as Santa Paws and Fred being only there for the food – as with the kids, no change there then 😂

Lunch itself was glorious and we all enjoyed it in the Christmas dining hall (the lounge) again this year.

Thank you to all for your gifts and time for joining us – as always we truly enjoyed it and appreciated your time being shared with us on such a precious day.

Biggest thanks of course to Vicky for enabling us all to enjoy such a fabulous meal in such great company – every course seemed to be better than the one it followed. 👌
