New Year's Eve Party at Fi and Grae's

A group of us got together in Westcliff at Fi and Grae's to see the new year in.

Walk over Fairlop Waters

We went for a walk over Fairlop Waters and into Barkingside for some lunch today, nice to get out for some fresh air!

Xmas in Elnesvågen

We're just back from spending a week in Elnesvågen for Christmas. We had some very seasonal snow on Christmas day which was nice (though took time to clear!), as well as a trip to see Marie and family. A few photos are below, while a few more are here:

Sunday trip up to Ely

On a snowy Sunday, we took a trip up to Ely to see Caroline, Frankie and Scarley....not forgetting Justin and Daisy! The drive up was quite slow due to the conditions, but coming home was a lot quicker, after a very nice shepherd's pie for lunch.

Blockheads Xmas party

A group of us headed up to Islington Assembly Hall, for our annual Xmas get-together to see The Blockheads. We went for a drink before and after the gig at The Hope and Anchor....a good night out, despite the chilly weather!

DNB Xmas Party

It was the DNB Xmas Party tonight at Smiths of Smithfield. A very nice location with views over the city on the top floor.

Xmas Lunch at The Prospect of Whitby

A large group of us went to The Prospect of Whitby for an Xmas lunch. A good time had by everyone!

Christmas is coming

The tree is up, and new (rather bright) lights are on the tree outside.

West Ham v Leicester

We went to West Ham on a Friday night to see them play Leicester. Not a brilliant game of football, but a fun night out with Paul's colleague Sergio from Argentina tagging along. We headed back to The Builder's Arms for a couple of drinks after the game.

Sunday up town

We've had Nina staying this weekend. Today we took a trip up town, having a coffee and cake in The Scandinavian Kitchen, before heading for a walk around Libertys and through Carnaby Street before stopping of for a drink in The John Snow before heading home.

Roger's 50th Birthday Party

We went on the Queen Elizabeth for a cruise down the Thames for Roger's 50th Birthday. He'd hired Scam 69 to provide the music,as it was the same boat that The Sex Pistols did their infamous river cruise all those years ago. A great night, with a lot of laughs, and Roger raising a lot of money for Parkinson's disease research by getting his head shaved. A few photos are below, the rest are here:
