HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

A Happy New Year to one and all. I hope it's a good one.
Inspired by my early years of first footing we carry the tradition on, a drink, money, cake and a warm greeting..........my daughter collected the greeting this year.....:)

Happy New Year Margaret - looks like a great way to celebrate (and you can't beat a bit of cheese with Christmas cake if you ask me)
