Happy New Year
We wish all our visitors a happy new year and all the best in 2005 – and how was your Christmas? Quite different from those in the 1950’s, I bet.

Our Christmas went just like recent ones (smoothly & no disasters).
Christmas Eve German-style – just the 4 of us eating Raclette after the prezzys.
Christmas day stuffed turkey UK-style (parents- & brother-in-laws joined us) followed
by a 2-pound M&S Christmas pud. My son ate the rest the next day (of the pud)

We had ours on Christmas Day, as in the UK. But the actual meal was not traditional, as we are vegetarian: beansprout salad, baked Dorade with walnut sauce and brocolli followed by home-made Xmas pudding. But M&S and Harrods’ puds (which we can get at FRA airport, but which are expensive) are both very good.
M&S pulling out of Europe was a big mistake (and a pity, as we used to do a lot of food shopping at M&S in Frankfurt), we think – but then they have made a lot of mistakes in the last 2-3 years. We used to have shares in M&S, but their marketing direction became so erratic, that we sold them as soon as we could without making a loss…
