I will be taking a break from the blogosphere over the festive season so I just want to wish you all well over Christmas and may you be blessed with good fortune in 2014. So until 2014, it is so long from me, The Sage, The Apprentice and, of course, The Hound and Mini-Hound.

Thanks to all you guys I have now gained a following of over 500 and unless it all goes really pear shaped will also hit 20,000 views before Christmas. Thanks so much and see you in 2014 all refreshed. MM ๐
Thank you Kathryn ๐

Christmas was grand and quiet….until we got the news of the passing of a loved family member. In some ways this just underlines the perpetual life changes – in day in which the Christian world celebrates a birth Pete decides to move on.
May you and your family have a very happy 2014 Kathryn, MM

Dear friend, I am so sorry for your loss. May you all be comforted in your grief and cherish your memories of Pete with great love and–eventually, at least–happiness in the life he shared with you.
Peace,
Kathryn
