Frank R. Reporting from South England.
 
Best news, its still here. Temp high 50's, lots of sun. Ah! beautiful green & rolling country side, brings a tear to the eye. Drivers getting faster then ever, even though a zillion traffic cameras. So far, lots of family visits, miles of driving & way to much eating. In the hotel for a mo, then off out to another dinner.
Reg. Frank R.
Ps. 90 yr young mother, just gave me an earful, because 18 yr old son did not come with.

Hey Frank...good to hear from you. Sounds wonderful...nothing much changed then?

Give your mum a big hug and a kiss. Take care and enjoy the rest of your visit.

You can keep your spotted dick to yourself Frank...don't like sponge puddings. But you're correct about the green, green grass of home. :)

Will be back in the south in just over a month from now :D , and i'm looking forward to a steady diet of cod & chips, beef chow mein & special fried rice, and chicken madras (not at the same time though). Not so much looking forward to the diet i'll need to go on when we get back.

I won't tell you about the great crusty bread, fresh vegetables, amazing fruit, real bacon and proper sausages. Not forgetting the wine without sulphates.
