Family in Cape Town for New Year

So good to have some of Shirley's family around in Cape Town. We spent New Years eve in Camps Bay with Gail and Greg Roumbies which was great. Walk on Camps bay beach to see the sun go down, Royal variety show on TV with skips to SKY news where a hotel in Dubai situated near the Burj caught fire, chicken burgers, champagne and fireworks - what a great end to a fine year. Here's to an even better 2016! We are blessed. Chris and Allison Logie were also in the neighbourhood and popped in on the weekend for a swim at Muzinburg, breakie at the beach, braai at home of Chicken Tikka kebabs and flatbreads and many swims. Miss these guys since they moved to Australia - Settle down Chris"O. Major news in 2014: World: Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump remain front runners for the presidential election 800 000 immigrants escape war in Syria and Afghanistan and flee to Western Europe through Greece. 129 people killed in Paris in November by Isis terrorists
