Mainly, I got the pleasure of having my family all together for a couple of days. :wub:
My family gave me Michael Palin travelogues - Around the World in 80 Days, Sahara and Himalaya. :wub: They all know that I would leave them in a heartbeat, if Michael showed up on my doorstep and asked me to leave with him, but they are practical folk who reckon that this is a low risk. ;)
Guitar Hero, Legends of Rock came into the house too, and has been the source of much merriment. :D
Son the tower crane operator apprentice got a Lego⢠tower crane, because he said he needed one for his desk, to compete in a friendly way with his employer who has a collection of 'serious' model cranes. :lol:
The rest of my family scattered to varying destinations. The one miracle of this was that the 80 year old father in law and the 53 year old brother in law who went on their first vacation together ever managed to return from the cruise with pleasant stories to tell about each other. :blink:

And you may call it righteousness
When civility survives,
But I've had dinner with the Devil and
I know nice from right.
