Heppell Christmas letters
our festive communications with family and friends...

Each year the Heppell family from Brightlingsea (Stephen, Carole, children Juliette, Melissa, Toby and their partners George, Simon and Cali) mail Christmas cards and newsletters to their family and many good friends around the world. Not that J&G, M&S or T&C live in B'sea any more, but this is still home.

Now, you either love or hate this world craze for annual newsletters (a bit like Marmite really), but some while back those who love them have asked us to store these somewhere handy, which on reflection is nice for us too. This web page is that "somewhere handy". They go back a fair way...

These are assuredly not works of art, or indeed of any literary value, by any standards. But for anyone interested, here are the various annual contributions. We are still trying to find our early annual web-advent calendars from the pionering days of the Internet from 93/4, for those of you who were already wired back then and have asked:
