Seasons Greetings All ! I've been writing these Christmas Newsletters since
1995, online since 1996 - Click on Father Christmas above for that from 1996 :-)

Many of us prefer paper !
However, paper will not follow links or play videos ... yet ! :-)
My latest videos are on www.youtube.com/user/RobinLovelock/videos - there are a LOT ! :-)
Tap or click on pictures to expand, visit links, or play videos. e.g. Clicking on me on the left visits my www.GPSS.co.uk "Home" page. Below is Tody the Cat, our new family member. Tap or Click on him for his Tody page, and see what he has been up to ! Homer is on "Christmas Guard Duty" again :-)
We had snow in January - suitable for snowball fights. It made the local golf-courses more suitable for Walks :-)
June & Samantha had tickets for Ladies Day at Royal Ascot. Robin was their driver - then joined Uncle Bernie & cousin Larry to watch it on TV :-)
June decided to buy a Camper Van , and we have already had two fantastic trips in it. The first was to Devon: lovely walks, Steam trains, beaches, and Pam Coughlan :-)
Our next trip, north, took in the amazing model aircraft show, the RAF Museum with TSR-2, then Wales,
Robin's old friend Tony Wale, and the estate of Lord Glanusk.
Saskia & Gary hosted our 50th Wedding Anniversary party. June found old photos, taken by their Ferranti-workmate Pete Wilson. Robin remembered how he cut the cake ! :-)
Here are a few of the guests enjoying themselves :-)
June's Birthday, on Sunday 18th July 2021, had nice weather, so we had lunch on our back patio.
The deer eat peanuts left out near our front door :-)
LOTS of other things happened, often the result of taking interesting
Walks
- sometimes places we had not visited for decades - if at all. e.g. that Gypsy Party ! :-)
Writing this newsletter reminded me that I'd forgotten to mention that 5k run that June and Samantha did,
around Eton Boating Lake, on Saturday 4th September. It was the same day that June and I started our Camper trip up north,
mentioned earlier. Luckily, I managed to find the photos and video clips, that went into my Youtube video above.
You will see them with their medals, and me doing some running too :-)
June caught a mild case of Covid19 in early October, keeping her in bed several days, but she was soon back into tennis, shopping, and socialising - within the rules AND Common Sense of course ! :-)
Time to wrap up this "early issue" of the 2021 Newsletter, within a paper budget of two A4 sides, and delegate June to print a few copies.
I'm sure extra pages will be added to this online copy on
www.gpss.co.uk/xmas21.htm
with more pictures, videos, and later news - hopefully good !
Here we are, enjoying a dance at Ramster Gardens, on 29th October 2021.
It's from our
Walks
page :-)
added on Boxing Day, 26th December 2021, then Monday 27th December, then Thursday 30th December ...

we took Michelle and her cat Lady, back to Coventry, via Robin's sister Sally's place in Raunds. See
Family

June's Kitchen is the same in December 2021 as 12 months earlier. Details are on Robin's

Some pictures from
Walks
:Bucklebury Farm Park on 29th December 2021 ....
Tap or Click on pictures to enlarge them. Michelle is crazy about animals, so, after a long drive around,
we ended up at Bucklebury Farm Park, that we had not visited for a while.
Who has visited this page ?
From Robin: It's very convenient for me, that there are so few visitors to this page: just those given the link.
See map and words near end of my
Home
page ;-)
The visit counters may give a rough indication on who else is visiting, or has visited, this page.
I don't hide or disguise my visits, but they may appear as "Ascot", or miles away, like "Southal, England" (on my Study PC),
or "Southend-On-Sea" ( on the Lounge PC).
Positions may not be accurate, but times are.
These may change at any time, without control by me.
e.g. after a power cut, or my re-booting a router.
So, you may see if I'm "working" in the Study, or "playing" in Lounge :-)
