Debate about New Year Eve fireworks continues with many scheduled fireworks cancelled from celebrations for this year. Sydney will go ahead unless conditions deteriorate.
Heatwave conditions are forecast today with a total fire ban across the state. Another day of tense fire awareness with several large fires continuing to burn south and west of here.
Our second Christmas without Chris was a quiet family gathering. Nobody is as good at carving the meat but we managed. We adjourned to Paul’s to continue our day with the kids. They were very excited at the prospect of more presents. They had spent their allocated time with their mother and her family.
Paul managed to assemble the basketball hoop/stand with some rather cryptic instructions just before the mosquitoes hit us and the light failed.
It was good to see and spend time with family and friends over this special time. I’m looking forward to 2020.
