http://www.cavemantom.co.uk/cavegirl/photos/phase4_dec09.html We set off in December for nearly a month of travelling (mostly in India, with a few days in Bahrain). The photos from this trip are all on Flickr (http://www.flickr.com/photos/cavegirl/collections/72157623070456544/). However, before we went, we still had time to go shopping for a mammoth tree with the Willsbridge House crowd... (apologies for the rubbishy quality of the first few pickies - they were taken on my Blackberry, which, as it happens, doesn’t like dark, rainy conditions much) http://www.cavemantom.co.uk/cavegirl/photos/phase4_dec09.html#0 bbf8ebd3-66af-4505-821e-73ff1b38c71e http://www.cavemantom.co.uk/cavegirl/photos/phase4_dec09_files/Media/IMG00003-20091208-1909/thumb.jpg http://www.cavemantom.co.uk/cavegirl/photos/phase4_dec09_files/Media/IMG00003-20091208-1909/micro.jpg <div style="padding: 0px;
