Christmas and other celebrations

In November we flew to the Cape for 5 days to celebrate Neil's Dad's 80th birthday. We spent a week in Zebula in December and had a mini Christmas with Mom, Dad and Tracy. We then travelled back to the Cape for Christmas with the  Greenfield family. The London Greenfields joined us too. As usual Christmas lunch was a grand affair, with Charles' Grapefruit Martinis, Veal Tonello to start, Turduckens and Danie's Hamand  everyone's salads for mains, with Leonie's yuletide log and Christmas pudding with Syntyche's brandy sauce for dessert.  It's always a jam packed time, catching up with friends and family and cooking up a storm in the Perdeput kitchen. Luckily Esme is always on hand next door to supply blenders, salad bowls and extra crockery and cutlery. Ann and Michael, Carol and Jane also came to stay. So did Kili and Zambezi, Carol and Jane's Jack Russell pups, who are not very good at listening and ran off along the beach road chasing cars and bicycles whenever they were allowed off the leashes.
