A belated thanks Mr S

My partner, my 5 children (2 of them adults but home for the Christmas/New Year period) and me all walked /motor-biked up the hill (600m above sea level)on our farm at about 11pm and waited under a clear stunning night sky for midnight to arrive so we could see the fireworks displays of the 2 nearest cities.

I had made everyones fave choc-chip biscuits so we ate those while we watched a stunning display (and waited in absolute silence for the cracks/booms of the fireworks to reach us - about 15 seconds).

It was a great way to see in the New Year

I trust 2009 brings the Silver family, and all other members of the TE family joy (but also a little sadness for without sadness how do we appreciate all the truly wonderful moments) and success (as well as striving for success, for if we achieve everything we set out to, we can lose interest in trying).

I wish everyone passion in everything you do - loving, laughing, cycling, crying, healing, believing, challenging and understanding.

Passion is life, is energy, is essential... we are human beings. and passion allows us to "be".
