I LOVE basketball

…watching it anyway. This is our sixth year (I think) of season tickets (we also had them a few years in the mid-90s) and I just love going to the games. It’s great now too as a lot of games are shown live on One HD. Kevin laughs that he’s got a sport-watching wife. He really only goes cause I love it. The poor Hawks aren’t going too good at the moment but I still love watching them play.  And there is always a great atmosphere at the Sand Pit as you can see in this video.

to me and from me :-). Ordered from my favourite shop in the UK – Whittards.

Best of all, nothing arrived broken. They won’t replace any international breakages and last time I had a tea pot break. This time it was packed much better.

Three beautiful Christmas mugs… how will I choose which one to use each day….
