I met up with BIL, SIL and niece who have spent Xmas on Ventura (our first christmas for many years where we have not been together - and if I&amp;#39;m honest - I&amp;#39;ve missed them)!  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, didn&amp;#39;t make it to dinner last night.  When we left Barbados it was quite rocky and I was not prepared!  So was in bed by 8.30pm!  Still never mind - missing a meal won&amp;#39;t hurt ;-o)  Dresses are getting a bit tight anyway (lol)!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have to agree with James - NYE we all had a ball.  My feet were killing me!  I did miss the in laws and more especially my son - who doesn&amp;#39;t appear to be missing us as he doesn&amp;#39;t reply to my texts or to my facebook messages.  But I think that lads for you ;-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well back to my holiday.  Looking forward to following James and the good ship Arcadia around the world on my return.
