We are cutting our trip short - not going on from here to Merida as planned but returning straight home this Friday. Lynette's cousin has died and the funeral is next week.
So today we went to theЧитать далее
So sorry to hear about your cousin, Lynette. Such a sad reason for you to have to come home but no doubt the memories of your time over there will keep your spirits up for when you return to the chilly days in Wendover. There is no real news here apart from the fact that Carrie invited me in to Molly’s bungalow this morning and the evidence and smell of damp permeates the whole place. She still awaits the results of the asbestos check in the artex ceilings that have collapsed and is getting no joy from the insurance company as to a date when they can get workers in. I feel so sorry for her and the responsibility she is shouldering.Enjoy your last couple of days and have a safe journey home. Eve [Eve]
