Holiday is coming

So nearly there - this week has gone quite slowly after our very busy week last week. I am so looking forward to our holiday and have nearly finished all that needs to be done before we go. Leaving our boy behind has good and bad points. Great for the cat and to have someone in the house. Not so good is that I need to make sure he has food to eat -- not that I think he would starve!

 These photos are ones we took last year. How wonderful it is to be able to go back again. I am tearful just thinking about it. I am so grateful to be well enough to go on holiday and to not be doing dialysis. We take so much forgranted but for some people holidays are a luxury they can never have.

Our hotel

 Last nights bookclub was great - good conversation and great company. I love spending time with these ladies. Today bible study with some more lovely ladies. Tomorrow packing and possibly a trip to Savil Gardens to see the roses - hopefully at their prime, just a few weeks later than last year.
Then Sunday - up bright and early to catch our train to the Lakes. Chloe and Ed are meeting us at the station.
