Update

Sorry I haven't been around but as you know we have had visitors.  What a wonderful time we have had sharing some of the beauty of this magical Island with them.  We were blessed with good weather too, although a little cool at times.  It didn't stop us enjoying the beaches and parks.


Sadly my dear Dad is seriously ill and was rushed to hospital yesterday.  So this morning I am on the first flight off the Island to see him.  I am flying to Edinburgh and then getting a train down.  Gerard is not able to travel so our eldest daughter is on the first flight out of Luton to keep him company until I get back.  I will catch up with you when I can.

See you soon.

  34. I'm so pleased you had such a lovely time with your family when then came to stay and that the weather cooperated too. I'm sending my best wishes for a speedy recovery for your dad, it's very worrying as our parents age, especially when they're not in the best of health. Do take care of yourself too. I just wanted to thank you for the lovely comment you left on my last post about the death of my mum, it was very much appreciated and helped so much to know that people were thinking of me at this sad time xx
