party season

It's the party season and we have had some occasion to clean up and have a good time.  Last night we fitted in a cocktail party and a 40th birthday bash!  Tonight Rob has gone to see U2 live in the city with some friends.  Tomorrow night we are hosting friends for a Christmas dinner and then the week will fill up with various drinks gatherings.  It really is good fun.  The weather is just too divine and strappy dresses are all I need.  The advent boxes are diminishing and there is definitely the distant sound of sleigh bells.
