Thank you to my darling Nancy

for the lovely cards and contact messages from you all
And thank you so much for the card from Heather too, and we even managed to have a breif chat, when I called from work on Sunday...

I have to use the works phone as we have no land line and the mobile bill is HUGE!!! Being on the phone to the insurance compant, loss adjusters and builders for so long sure adds up !
The update on the house is... surveyor is out Thurs to see what has to be done! ie walls knocked down etc.... we have been told we are out for at least 6 months! we have rented an apartment (only a 2 bed one on the 3rd floor... nice and trendy great for a couple but not too good for a family in practical terms!)
We are soo looking forward to the holiday!
I will phone Heather ( if this is ok mate?) and get an update on the dis tag stuff nearer the date. Sadly my first lot of gifts are now very very wet!!! so Iwill have to go shopping again! I wish we had booked a palos brunch, our time slot was just HOURS after being flooded. and as we have no internet now, we will have to wait till we board and beg a space then.
I sooo miss chatting to you all.... Im borrowing the computer at my friends house ( she goes to Florida on 29th Sep ) I will try and get on line now and then.
Take care everyone.... Linda xxxx
