Birthdays galore

The most recent picture I have of the birthday girl Aunty Sue, 
with Uncle Dave, way back when at Rob and Louise's wedding

This week in October is our family birthday week. It started yesterday with my big brother, today is my lovely Aunty Sue's birthday, then it's my nephew Oliver on thursday, Mato's on friday and husband Viri's on sunday! A full week of festivities! Break out the champers and get out the balloons!

A Happy Occasion

OK, so this news is not directly related to French Polynesia - but I am happy to announce the birth of my nephew Oliver Claridge on Oct 14th, a healthy 6lb baby boy. Parents and grandparents are over the moon! Aunty Elin (or Tatti Helene as I'm known here) is pretty pleased too, and looking forward to meeting the new recruit.
What a beautiful baby - so angelic! Congratulations to Mum and Dad. Aunty Elin and Great Aunty Norma think he's going to be a real looker!
