Chinese New Year

Last friday marked the beginning of the year of the horse in Chinese culture; this did not go unnoticed in Talbot's circles. However, a break from tradition was made in celebrating Chinese new year in the house. Rather than go out for a chinese buffet, the decision was made to have our celebrations in the barn as one big Talbot's family. Jordie  played some traditional(ish) chinese music for us all to listen to and Mrs Gracie managed to order a take away big enough to feed the whole of the terracotta army, let alone Talbot's house. The great atmosphere, good food and friendly company made for a lovely night greatly enjoyed by all involved.
