Hi JoannaD!

Well done on selling the house and getting your visa!

We might be going to Manchester so will let you know if we can make it or not soon.

yes we are totally bonkers, but what the heck I must be one of those Skiiers (spending kids inheritance) having a major mid life crisis! Had to drop the price of the house by a few thousand, but it doesn't owe us anything! :) really glad, but the cats may have a new home with the next owners
