Geoff & Jenny Hi Andy and Emma, We hope you are both well despite the trials you are getting, but hopefully they will resolve in due course. We had Mom and Dad down here on the weekend 18-21 to have Xmas dinner etc with us, Emma,Tom,Jon,Leissa and the grandchildren. We had a lot of fun as we took them on the "Santa" train to a panto with lots of excited shouting and laughing. Mom and Dad invited us to their hotel on Sunday evening, and we had a lovely meal and a quiet chat. Any way must go, take care both and "Happy Birthday" 31st I think! Love Geoff & Jenny xx

Chris Hi Andy hi Emma, I've just been reading your blog from June 25... Crikey! you have been having some adventures all ready.

Glad to hear your having a great time. I love both your strong spirits, your blog makes good reading, I'm going to catch up on past blogs later I'm a bit behind.
