Re: 3 years......
Glad things are working out well for you Sue 
and you live in a really nice area 
Do you remember my girls collected some pebbles for me from the beach when we met up? I brought the pebbles home with me and used them for support in my Christmas tree bucket. A lovely memory of when we met and getting to know you. Hope you continue to be happy in Spain
