Couldn't resist a snap of the fabulous workmanship at Old Roan station where they've been rasing the platform height to accommodate the new trains (due 2020 I believe).

One job they had...

This is Sennen Cove, Lands End where our Laura lives. The photo was taken yesterday.
The row of houses bottom left is where Lauras in laws live, they live in the end property nearest the sea (more Bootle ex pats)
Laura lives near to the end of the fainter rainbow.

Came across this video which brought back a lot of very
happy memories of a Christmas Weekend trip to New York
several years ago. If one ever goes there be sure to visit
the Rockettes at Radio City it really is a fantastic show.......

Jillian, Thom & Family plus his Mom, Sister & her Family all enjoying Christmas in Lake Tahoe
where there is plenty of snow for skiing! :-) Here, the "Cousins" are enjoying their Christmas Break,
while the other two thirds spent our Christmas in Virginia at both my house and Christmas Dinner at
Janine & Makr's, where they certainly "Outdid" themselves. :D

Hope Everyone on the Forum had a Lovely Christmas and I would certainly enjoy seeing
some photos of same, especially as Janine forgot to put out the "Crackers!!!" :roll: :D

Lynne - You have plenty of company :D I too struggle with a lot
of the local terminology as each generation comes up with
something new and I'm afraid we are now "Out of the Loop"
but our hearts still belong to "Bootle" :(

The Wedding of my Grandson Trevor & Alisha!

Can honestly say, this has been a most wonderful, lovely, wedding weekend from the "Rehearsal Dinner" to the "Wedding Reception" and "Everything" in between. My compliments to both sets pf Parents. The Bride looked stunning, the Groom handsome and the Bridesmaids & Groomsmen completed a perfect wedding party. Cannot wait to see the official wedding photos!
Good Luck & only the Best of Everything to Alisha & Trevor in their future life together!....Nana xx

I also gave the Bride a traditional Horseshoe to carry for Good Luck!! :-) (She had never heard of it but loved the concept!} :-)
