For the last 12 years I have had some really good friends that I met here in Spain.
This year T´s Mum asked if her friends could rent my flat. I agreed and they were lovely oh boy I will have them back in a heartbeat.

Tonight my fiends who are on holiday in Cornwall ran into some friend,who they have known for 40 years . ! and chatting the friends said thy spent time in Los Alcazares with a lady who had 3 dogs works for a shelter . My Friends said Joking not J & T ,,,,well it was us
Now how weird is that

Small world, Uzzi!

We left the rented cottage in Tideswell in June but stayed an extra night in a pub b and b to see the Wakes week parade etc. I had mislaid my sunglasses so called back to the cottage to see if I had left them there, and the new holidaymakers turned out to
be from Norwich like us.

Late last year we met up with some 'cousins', A and T, found through genealogy, they mentioned they had a caravan on a village site in the Lake District. Fast forward 6 months and I met up with some more 'cousins' from the other side of the family, who said they were going to their caravan in the same village. I said that A and T had a caravan in the same village, but wasn't sure of the site. Got a text saying they had all met up by chance! And got on really well too.
