Happy Christmas everyone!

We're celebrating the festive season around Barmarama today, with chestnuts roasting on the BBQ. A big thanks to Wayne and his little boy Oliver for making these beautiful Christmas biscuits. We particularly like the cornflake cake 'wreaths' with green food colouring and red berries made of marzipan. Genius. Have a good Christmas everyone! See you in 2012 x

Christmas Party 2011

The fancy dress theme this year was 'Dave's Ark'.

44 pairs of animals, plus Dave as Noah.

I'll say no more.

Tignes time

Perfect weather, tonnes of snow and sunshine in The Alps. A perfect weekend for the Karmarama ski trip. Happy days! Had to feel a bit sorry for the beginner group ending up on a red run though - took them 1.5hrs to get back down.

Ping Pong 24 kicks off!

And so it begins.

Following a tremendous effort last year, Dave is yet again raising money for the lovely Age UK. Last year it was 2000 brussels sprouts for £2000. This year it will be 24 hours of ping pong, even more money and (hopefully) a colon which is still in tact.

One hour in and we are almost past the £700 mark. Please donate, sponsor, watch online and tell your friends.

Remember: Work hard, be nice to people, play ping pong.

Christmas Jumpers - Day 1
