Hi Sheena! Thanks for saying Hi, apart from Cal (Moderator) saying hi my thread didnt attract to many friends :wink: Technically I am not a brit or in the british area, we are in Rep of Ireland, County Clare. Hubby's mother English from tumbridge wells, I am Aussie.... Ya we off soon! Cant wait, So when are you heading out?.... Nikki

 

Well, we are hoping to go Oct/Nov, but thanks to the crap housing market, it could be 2009.:frown: Don't want to wait too long as our eldest is coming 14 and could change her mind if we wait too long.:wink:

Best wishes
Sheena
