WHite Boxing Day

so we didn't get the white Christmas that I wanted, but it was only a day late. It snowed on BOxing Day and all the way up until I left Brussels.

I am now home and not wanting to face work starting next week and all the responsibility that will bring. I have work to do before i start school and much more to do on the weekends and afternoons. Once again, welcome to the real world deev... ha, but my class is wonderful (despite a few quirks) and i am really looking forward going to the same place everyday.

well, here are some photos of the snow, yay

Christmas at the Vercnocke's.

Well, am now in Overjise in Belgium. It is not very far South East of Brussels. I am here with Jen and Mike (my dad's cousin somehow), their children Catherine and Tom and Jen's mum and dad. And we had an absolutely smashing Christmas with lots of cheese, wine and turkey. The cheeses are very exotic from France, Devon and Belgium too!!! And the wines were French or Spanish and the beer was a grand 8.something% and from Belgium, where they can be as strong as 12%.

Umm, we went to the Christmas markets today in Brussels which were pretty. And we are hoping for snow, although unfortunately it was not a white Christmas. Well, off now to watch Doctor WHo with the family and then maybe play a bit of Playstation 2 with the eyetoy... ever so much fun!

love you all and missing you all. Hope you had a GREAT Christmas.

two housemates moving out and two new ones moving in (all french)... december holds lots of fun things in store. The dynamics of the house will change heaps.

umm, Marion went shopping in Selfridges the other day and bought a really nice pair of jeans, she had never heard of the brand, but nonetheless, it was sass and bide... go sydney...

went to order a laptop yesterday with lots of issues with my funding... I HATE the banks over here. so alas, no computer, hopefully sometime next week i will order it, who knows if it will arrive before christmas. as if not, i will not be able to pick it up, cos chrissie in brussels this year... who knows where i'll be for new years.

well, better get to tami's new place for dinner,
