Hiya sweety! So good to hear you are happy in your little corner

Don't worry about hotel bookings, there is a really sweet lady over there, 'hotel inspector' that will come and put 'your house in order'...sort of a female version of Gordon Ramsay!!

One day, one bloody day, but for the time being we are here, and as my dad always said, wherever you live, wherever you are.... be there.
