were in their element with the simply delicious steak and kidney pies, mushroom pies and a shepherd's pie. Tiff makes pies for Larry and then I bring the emptys back in the car to be refilled. Hilarious. Surely easier to try and cook myself...I don't think so... The desserts were to come. I adore pavlova and once ate a whole one...I just can't resist it. Tiff's was so scrummy and so was the sticky toffee pudding. I had a sneaky taste when Larry wasn't looking. A truly great night. Christmas is on its way! Thought you might like to see me, Sammy and Tiffany wrapped up watching the fireworks (pictured top). I've heard you mention several times that you go to Florida a lot. Do you own or rent a property and where is it? Really interested as we've just purchased in South Florida, on the Atlantic coast, between Boca Raton and Palm Beach. Bought it earlier this year whilst out there and only completed on it 4 days before coming home. So really looking forward to returning to 'our place' in January for several weeks. Enjoy Christmas in your new house! Dear Diana, We had so much fun. My husband and I have owned out there for 14 years and just moved to our new place in Sarasota, Florida only a year ago. You will love it!! It will become addictive. we like you, are going in Jan. A little chilly but better than the cold weather in the
