While I have many memories of my time on the hostel, Christmas parties are not among them, yet I must have attended them.

The photo of you attests to that, lol. Though you look extremely bored, so you were probably tuned out.

Don't be "neggo" mum, Very Happy we are all still here, and still check in at least a couple of times a week. We still post when we have something to report. Judith is probably not back from her holiday yet either.
