Xmas Day

Posted by redracer on December 25, 2006

Anyone who knows me personally will know why today is the logical day to start this blog, based on it’s title. If you don’t know, then have a guess 🙂

As my wife did not have any extra holidays, we travelled down to Albury to my mother’s place for a quick 4 day visit.
