Happy New Year!  Accounts are a mystery to me - how is it possible for the turnover to drop and yet the bottom line be better than last year?  Only one conclusion - I must be selling more of my work (which is more profitable than other lines) and be a most excellent manager....LOL!
So we are looking forward to 2013 with confidence and enthusiasm....unlike some other years I could mention....
Having said that I HATE NYE and when down here everyone just gets more drunk than they usually do if that is possible, but in fancy dress.  Jools Holland and a snowball for me!
I've been given the Sennen Cove Diary for Christmas - it's really laugh out loud funny and gives a brilliant insight into life in a small community in Cornwall.....it was given with the intent of prodding me into writing this book I keep going on about.  For example - something that could go into MY book - Kara and I were sitting int he Wellie having one of their excellent cheese salads (with no salad - just how I like it) and a burger for the teenager when one of the men at the bar popped up off his stool, farted loudly and sat down again as if nothing had happened and no one could hear! Could only happen in St Just.

I am having a little tidy up since the lovely Leyla is coming for her winter visit in 8 days - it will be lovely - even if it may never stop raining.  Going to take a couple of days off too to make the most of it.

The teenager and I have bought ourselves a little present who is at the moment called Apollo Darley Winston since we can't agree...he's arriving from Redruth on 13th January...and we can't wait.  I am officially a trainee crazy cat woman (full membership of this club starts with five cats I'm told).  I've sent for extra Feliways off the internet...Percy and Baby are not going to like it at first.  The accountant said I couldn't put him through the books though - even though clearly he's going to inspire lots of new work.
