Last night at home for Terry and Sally

We are travelling to Manchester tomorrow and staying in a motel overnight before meeting Ron and Carol at the check- in desk early on Wednesday morning. The flight is at 10.30 so we have to be at the airport before 7.30.
Today has been quite busy doing last minute washing, buying forgotten items, cutting the lawns, sorting out the fallen apples (we've had a bumper crop this year - been having difficulty giving them away!), packing and leaving lists for Helen for jobs to do when we are away. Why is there so much to do when going on holiday? One needs the holiday to recover from the preparations!
Terry made a lovely 'Sunday Dinner' followed by his wonderful plum and apple crumble for our last meal with Helen. Very nice it was too. Helen has been called into Ormesby School tomorrow to work in the unit for children with special educational needs, so we will only have a few minutes with her in the morning. Lets hope this will give her some much needed money to help fund her trip to Colorado - she is returning to work in the Children's Centre in Breckenridge over the ski season.
I can't believe that we are off to Florida again - doesn't seem two minutes since we came back, even though it's been four months. Looking forward to the warmth, the food, the people and the wonderful countryside with the beautiful vegetation and the marvellous wildlife.
