This afternoon I am leaving for Sweden. I managed to close both of my very full suitcases, filled with Christmas crackers, Stilton, lots of gifts and Winter Pimm’s.

So off I go. I can’t wait to come home and give my parents a big hug. And tomorrow already my best friend Emma is hosting a party. It will be so much fun to see all my friends!

And although I might sound like the Grinch, I am quite happy that my parents garden won’t look like it did last year (picture above). Although it looks pretty it was chaos on the roads, the trains were delayed and it was freezing.

Much better without snow, although it won’t look as pretty. 🙂
