wendyhalliday Hi Pete currently lounging in a coffee bar by the acropolis not too shabby......

Pete Welcome to temperate Europe chaps !! Oh it ain't so bad, you'll soon get used to it although we do tend to dress rather differently in these parts - well most of us do anyway. Weather has been tumultuous (like that word). Only last week the beaches around Aberdeen were packed as sun worshippers bathed in 23c temperatures. This week it plunged to -7c, seven inches of snow, road blockages and power lines down!! Now, you don't get that in Abu Dhabi do you? Really looking forward to seeing you both.

Mum and Dad Well its getting nearer to home now. But I have just caught up on some of the recent blogs what a great time you are having I am so pleased this trip has worked out well for you. Footie again tonight old man is getting stressed out!!!! We are also going up on Saturday. Congrates for tomorrow your 26th Wedding aniversery _ are you going to celebrate???? All for now Love to you both Mumxxxx
