I took this picture this morning. Mums photos is not so good. She doesnt know if it is because I am a better phtographer or I have a better camera. I said it is because of both.
I had a nice christmas. Here is a picture of one of my presents. It looks real in the photo. It is a Transam, Knight rider remote control car.
I also got this. it is made from recycled metal and is a model of the Mallard Steam Train.
My dad really did get a real car. He got a classic Mini 1000. He got this because it is cheap to import, cheap to run, cheap to tax and he is a big kid when it comes to classic cars.
I have not had much time to craft as mum has been ill, but I am going to start a tapestry nurse card for my gran, an emu picture and a mini car. I also have lots of model planes to make from the Duxford collection. I want to start with the Spitfire mark 1A first.
I would like to thank my mum's friend Theresa in Australia. She sent my mum stuff and she also sent me and my brother some things.
She sent me three pages of Australian charts, three books, lots fof really cool stamps and a koala keyring.
I really really like them all, thank you very much Theresa.
I will finish this post with some pictures of my dogs. While my dad was away, mum trained them both, and now they sleep together outside at night in their kennel and run and because they are good now, the puppy crate has been put away and both dogs just share a bed in the kitchen next to the range in the day.

Happy New Year to you
A beautiful photograph of the sunrise. Loving the transam and the train, my husband collects trains and his dad was an actual engine driver!
Well done mum on training the dogs.
Why is the bonnet up on the mini, is it broken??
Hi Xander. I am so glad you like your goodies that I sent to you from Australia. I am looking forward to seeing what you make with the charts I sent to you. Your Christmas presents look fantastic. It's wonderful to see Pongo and Portley sleeping nicely together now. I love your family's new car. I always wanted a mini but they are not very practical down here in Australia. They are a bit small for the distances we drive. Happy stitching my young friend.
Cheers
Theresa
Your mum must have worked really hard with the dogs, well done.
Looking forward to seeing pictures of some of your new stitching projects, I am sure your nan will love hers
Xander, you are such a multi-talented young man!! Great pictures!
You really received some nice things...the car and train are so awesome!
Love your dad's car too!
What nice gifts Theresa sent you! How fun!
I hope your mom is feeling better and so happy to see your puppies getting along nicely:)
