The Chettles arrive home

Today was pretty unexceptional except that the usual inhabitants of the house we were staying in - The Chettles - that is, Cherie's Aunt Marie, Uncle Wayne, and Cousin Nathan all came home from their grand tour of Europe, during which they'd visited Monique, Nathan's sister, who is currently at university in the Netherlands. They were all lovely, and surprisingly non-jetlagged. They basically spent the day at home catching up (and being quizzed by me on how they'd enjoyed Europe) and with Nathan showing off his awesome piano playing skills, and trying to teach Christina 'Chopsticks' (I get the impression he fancies her) - with Michael intervening on the piano every so often. Then in the evening, more extended family showed up, and a lot of the younger cousins talked about going out to a friendly basketball match. They invited me and Christina along, but when Christina declined (she goes to bed seriously early), I didn't seem to be invited any more, though I would have quite liked to go along (told you Nathan fancied her...) so I spent the evening instead with Paul trying to explain Aussie Rules Football to me, and watching old episodes of Flight of the Conchords.

G'night!
