As usual Boxing Day was spent with Amy and friends and family celebrating her birthday in typical Cape Town style.Get the lowdown...

Today is Gregory's birthday, and time sure flies when your're not paying attention. He's heading towards the Big Four-Oh next year.

I haven't updated for a while so I may as well mention that it was Tatum's birthday on the 9th of Jan, Vanessa's birthday on the 12th of Jan, and Bev's on the 18 of Jan.

Eileen literally popped down to Cape Town for a short holiday with her sisters and was back in Johannesburg within three weeks. I've been told stories of skinny dipping in certain waterfalls, but I've got no proof. Apparently the camera lens couldn't stand up to the combined charms of the Mapolie sisters. You can expect her back in Cape Town round about Easter to greet grand-kid number 8.

As usual I've not been paying enough attention, but Bev and bobby celebrated their wedding anniversary on Wednesday 24th . I suppose the good news is that by pure co-incidence, this site shares its birthday with their anniversary. Good luck to both of you!

Even though she had the party last Saturday, Emily's birthday is today. Heres hoping that the birthday girl left some presents to be opened this morning.

Emily hosted her sixth birthday party at home in Florida today. The lucky girl had loads of sweet goodies to eat and a jumping castle to work the sugar out of the system on. Thanks to all for the lovely gifts.
