OCTOBER 2024
How did we get to October so quickly? I feel like we hardly had a summer, I want to keep remembering the sunny days but we appear to be bombarded with Halloween which is not until the very end of October.

Also, you had the statue there where the saying goes if you…

The picture book image you have of this country is just as it is, absolutely beautiful. We learnt a few bits of information from our trusty Clive, he is one of the best drivers I have encountered on coach trips. Every 18 year old does military duty for two years and then they get to keep their rifle, which must be locked away safe in…
