Alexander had a game of Rugby in Cambridge this weekend, so we all went up to watch. The Woodford u7's did a sterling job considering the conditions (about 2deg with a v chilly wind), winning 2 of their 3 games.

After the game we went into Cambridge for a hearty lunch to warm us up. There were lovely Christmas markets and carol singers to enjoy too. Xander requested that they sing his favourite carol "Once in Royal David's City" and they obliged. He was
thrilled.



That evening we took Alexander and Eleanor into the West End. Belle was so excited to be getting out into the big smoke. After a delicious Thai meal and a quick look at the ice skaters in Sommerset House, we took the kids to see the Snowman. It is something we have wanted to take them to for years now, but they haven't really been old enough to sit through it until now. A real Christmas treat!!
