We are just back from a month in India!

                                                      At  the beginning of November I celebrated my 60th birthday with Byron and Saski in Portugal followed by the opening of our 2 person exhibition in Loule, then back to UK for a family get together.            

We also went back to UK in the summer.Saski and Byron had moved back into our house while they had the loft converted into a bed room for Sebastian so we all lived amongst the contents of their house in black bin bags. Charlie and Saski spent the summer totally redecorating their house which looks lovely!

Sam continues to travel the world, we went to hear him play in an underground car park in Lisbon, 3000 people turned up and the gig finished early @ 4am when the free whisky ran out, without either of us drinking a drop!

Last Xmas he met up with Lucinda, his long lost girl friend from 10 years ago, who was visiting from Oz, and they are now back together and have just bought a new flat in London.

love Hilary and Charlie
