Radio silence 🎿🚠⛷️

Is what we are receiving from the boys in Italy most of the time.

we did receive the following message yesterday – “i’ve had a huge crash this morning which has given me a head injury”

The detail took approximately 10 minutes to get – it was a small fall with a long barrel roll which resulted in a small headache.

Anyway, all joking aside the boys do appear to be having a cracking time – with only a couple of falls so far – the result of being slightly over confident.

Day one seems to have been a success

Not a great deal of communications coming home from Italy but Oliver sounds to be enjoying himself and we assume the same to be true for Elliot 🙂

A couple of photos have come in from Oliver….

And Elliot seems to have Santa’s boots 🎅🏻

Dinner was apparently awful last night although we suspect that was more the fact of the diner being tired and it not being pizza 😋

More info as we get it…..

Happy New Year

2020 has certainly been a challenging journey for most of us and so we are super happy to be at this end of it. COVID-19 has made for a painful scenario that has destroyed many peoples businesses and potentially lives through closing travel, accommodation and hospitality (among many other areas of course). The children have lost a lot of time in education, although it does feel that our school has managed very well all things considered (and we are sure that our school is not significantly different from others in this respect).

Sadly we are not out in the Caribbean celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary but we have enjoyed our mini celebrations at home and Vicky has been dreaming of her MFB.

2021 has got a great outlook from here right now, we have multiple vaccines, each with their own approach and a whole heap of hope. we are dreaming of an Easter where we can actually spend time with others and a summer that we might just be able to eat out again and who knows, we might even get a “proper” holiday next year…

Anyway, we hope that you are all well reading this and are readying yourselves for a much better year in ‘21.

Wishing you health and happiness throughout 2021 and beyond.

Simon, Vicky, Elliot, Oliver, Hugo and Eddie xx

Wishing all a very Merry Christmas

Wishing all our friends and family near and far a wonderfully Merry Christmas .

We hope that you are able to have a lovely time with your closest and that we can all meet up again soon in 2021.

Our Christmas Day isn’t quite going to be how we had planned as we were due to Be onboard P&O Britannia in the Caribbean celebrating our 20th Wedding anniversary.

However, as with likely all of you we are at home enjoying the coziness of the open fire and another terrific Christmas dinner courtesy of Mrs R 👌🍾🍷🍹

Have a wonderful time and we look forward to meeting you again soon for dinner, drinks, a dog walk or under whatever circumstances we can ❤️
