February saw Brian and I return to our dear beloved city of Christchurch for young Rory's 5th birthday, Rory is Yasmine and Adam's little fellow who we have a very close bond with. He is an absolute joy and brings us so much happiness, when they were here in December we never told him we were coming for his birthday so it was a surprise for him on the Saturday morning, we arrived on the midnight flight the day before his party. We only had a few days back home so for us it was as fleeting visit. We will be back later in the year for a week. Yasmine made Rory's cake he loves dinosaur's and we think she did an amazing job. Rory is now at school and is doing very well and had made alot of friends, he is having swimming lessons and has just started to play league for the Hornby Panther's, he is kept pretty busy however he is a great little guy who can amuse himself, give him a hammer, some glue and a few bits of wood and he will build something to keep himself happy - love you darling boy xxxxxx
