title A Pre-Christmas Dinner, Monkstown, Dublin - 16th December 2012 intro There's a sort-of mini Christmas dinner around Evelyn and Louise's gaff, without about three hundred people crammed around the table. The night before, though, there's a quieter affair as we try out a bit of a fondue, complete with Gruyere, Emmental and Kirsch. imgp8048 Harry rolls around on the floor imgp8049 Isobel and Louise chat over coffee imgp8053 Fred plays with last year's favourite game imgp8056 Lua waves something around imgp8057 Evelyn takes a photo of the sprogs imgp8062 Isobel looks shocked at her cheese string imgp8065 Louise, Evelyn and Isobel imgp8066 Isobel's on the floor for some reason imgp8067 Noddy comes over to do a spot of "Karate Kid" imgp8068 Fern and Fred have their own table imgp8073 imgp8074 Siunday lunch is served imgp8078 Annalua and Harry in their high-chairs imgp8081 Davida's got the gravy imgp8089 Dinner conversation imgp8096 Fern and Fred eat pudding imgp8097 Evelyn and Louise's kitchen imgp8103 James and Haryanna head off imgp8110 Lots of planes are parked at Dublin Airport imgp8112 An unusual sight of lots of carriers' planes imgp8113 A Norwegian Air plane at Dublin Airport imgp8116 Our towing tug drives off after push back imgp8121 We're in a queue behind an "Air Fungus" 737 imgp8125 Another aircraft streaks by below us imgp8126 Strange mounds in the fields of (maybe) Essex imgp8127 The fields of Essex imgp8128 An unusually-large number of parked Ryanair planes imgp8130 A huge FedEX 777 Cargo imgp8132 Isobel and The Boys exit the plane imgp8133 At Stansted, a thousand luggage trolleys imgp8134 We pile out of the terminal imgp8135 Isobel, Harry and Fred outside Stansted imgp8139 On the bus back to the Long Stay car park
