New Year 725BC
Ow. They certainly weren't kidding when they said it was a rough neighbourhood! It started to heat up when I expanded out into a new house - I'm calling it Barcelona.
Just look at those guys! And then they started turning up at Madrid too 
They even spoilt Christmas by breaking all my shiny copper baubles I ended up scrapping the whole thing this time - no baubles, the food wasn't anything special, and no gifts
It wasn't all bad though - I got to see where Uncle Mao lives:
And I found more family! Well, he's not really family, he's Cyrus's step-brother, from his father's first marriage.
He looks a bit nuts to be honest, if he was really related to me I'd be worried about madness running in the family. And he's pissed off with me.
I did learn Maths though!!
I'm dead proud of myself :D I'm trying to get my finances into order now, then hopefully I'll be able to give out some really special gifts next year.
Resolutions:
- Find more family! Surely Uncle Mao, Cousin Cyrus and Step-Cousin Montezuma aren't all of them?
- Deal with those nusiance neighbours. Once I get the Copper mines running again maybe I can make something sharp and pointy with that stuff, not just baubles. THat'll show the bastards!
- Get those finances under control. I want have a proper Christmas with gifts and everything.
