You keep up the adventuring, it's wonderful! Would love to be there! Am definitely thinking of cutting down, work has overwhelmed -- though often the trips are great. We need time for walks and talks with friends -- so see you when you're back! Kathy

Enjoying reading your blogs. Fintan (Rosemary of Howth)

Feel really guilty now 'cos I didn't keep up!!!
Glad you had such a great time and you're back safe, will try harder 'next year'

Hello you two, too busy to keep your blog updated!! you're obviously enjoying yourself far too much!!? I'm trying to keep up, let me see, oranges, mackerel oh! and yes semaphore! You're most recent trips do begin to put one in mind of ''cork in the ocean'' so to speak. Hope the weather stays 'good' take care :)

We're still enjoying your trip, aside from the early mornings ,''Happy Birthday Jane'' Champagne Supper huh! that's rough!! The bridges sound fun, as do the crowds, no queues over there then :) Hope the weather holds, it's not so good over here, keep it coming... John & Carol X

We think your picture are really gr8!

You 'paint' a very vivid picture in your last entry, I was just listening to those swallows whilst sitting on that deck with a drink in my hand when I heard ''tea's ready''!! Glad to hear that the weather is improving, wall to wall sunshine here!

Hi you two, the great 'british summer' strikes again i fear! or in your case, the great 'european summer' ''it can only get better'' Nice sketches for your diary, stay safe...John & Carol

Who needs to go on holiday when you provide such an interesting AND illustrated diary?! Hope you get some better weather next week, lovely sketching...Jo
