Back from the duldrums
 
Had a fantastic trip to good old Blighty. Did not want to come back to USA, well not for another couple of weeks, both her at home & myself were having an amazing time. The return date zoomed up & neither of us wanted to leave, started thinking of all the things left to do.

Returned to FL on Thursday 2/28, apart from going to the beach, I have been hanging around with hump. Wow, all these years of living away from UK & it still gets to me.

Hi Doris, glad your thinking ahead. We did not have time to fit in all the old familiar goodies. Though you could of seen me eating hot cross buns with a glass of merlot. Odd but it was 2 .0 am in my hotel room:eek: Mother bought me the 12 pack, could not stop eating them.

I know how you feel, I came back about a month ago and I am already planning my next trip back over!. The time just goes so fast and you never get around to doing everything you wanted to do or seeing all the people you wanted to catch up with.

Glad you enjoyed it tho!:)

Welcome back Frank. I brought back 20 large bars of Cadbury's chocolate, about 1,000 PG Tips tea bags and 20 packs of M & S Earl Grey tea.

I also had chips to die for several times.
