on to second page of Twilight Shimmer from HAED

and this week going to work on second page of Chatelaine St Petersburg .

We ended up visiting Bath twice in May as my MIL was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer and died with 5 weeks of diagnosis. It was all so quick it came as quite a shock to all the family. However it was also good catching up with all the family and friends in Bath and made us realise we really must make an effort to visit more often .. Lee does get quite homesick at times and me to (even though technically not my home lol!) but alas with the cost of living there we have no chance of ever being able to live there again, so Scotland you are stuck with us.. heading back down there in October though

one more week for me at work and then two glorious weeks off, back for a week and then another week off. waiting to see what the weather does, hopefully okay and we can get the tent out but if not it's going to be a long couple of weeks at home ..
