Happy Thanksgiving for last Thursday


Hello all

We’ve been living in Boston for three months now and are continuing to settle in.
Em’s working tonight so I thought I’d pass the time by writing a little.
Thanksgiving was a bit of a sad day because we missed our family and friends also because we watched ‘Field of Dreams’. We love the film it just made us cry at the end. I know we’re both soft but when Kevin Costner’s character asks his dad if he wants to play catch. It pulls at the heart strings. Made me want to go play table tennis with my Dad.
Boston was quiet because all the students had gone home for the holiday and most of the shops were closed except French Connection. The sales then started on Friday with many stores opening at five in the morning, that’s right I said five. People were queuing outside Wal-Mart and fighting with each other for the major bargains that only lasted for a couple of hours that morning. Crazy commercialism.

Well that’s enough for now don’t want to waffle on, keep it short. Going to see ‘The Magic Numbers’ supported by ‘David Kitt’ tomorrow night so check back later for that. Hope you like the pictures of Boston down by the Charles River and Boston Common, also our kitchen wall where we are sticking pictures and postcards people are sending us. So keep 'em coming.
