Hi Pascale and Ahmed, thank you for all your messages. Ben sends a big 'hello' and we are keeping our fingers crossed that you will be in the UK in August and then we will all be together again!
Dave has been checking out the ferry crossings so we will be in touch very soon to plan dates for April. Can't wait to see you all.

Hi Jan and Dave. We have enjoyed reading your blog and look forward to seeing you both soon. You have certainly packed loads in. The weather here is so different to what you've been having, but Spring is round the corner, the nights are drawing out, in fact it's still light when I leave work now, yay. The bulbs are starting to flower and the gardens coming back to life. We can say goodbye to winter, and Tony's SAD syndrome. At least we managed to get ten days of warmth in Fuerteventura last month. We will be asking you for tips on Australia as we are planning a trip next January, courtesy of some ppi money I have received. Have a safe return, happy mothers day next week Jan. Lots of love Ann and Tony xx

Hi Liz, did you and John go to the World Superbikes at Phillip Island last year?

Still following and still envious. This time last year we were in Brisbane

Hi Malc many thanks for your very informative update on what is happening back in Chumley. Nice to hear you are back on the road with a new Blade, I'm sure it won't be long before you start racking up some miles. I'm glad someone else has rearranged the rear of KHH!!

Pascale, we are looking forward to catching up with you both soon.
