And quickly too! My sister and brother-in-law, bless them, arrived as scheduled for what was supposed to be a six week stay over Christmas and New Year. After weeks of non-stop work I’d managed to get everything ready for their arrival but nothing went to plan right from day one and finally, due to a medical emergency, it was decided that they should cut their visit short and return home again. So after arriving as planned on 1st December, I sadly waved them good-bye on Tuesday 11th.<\/p>\n
So our immediate plans have unfortunately now been cancelled, which is deeply saddening as we hadn’t seen each other for two years on account of my own ill health last year. We’re hoping that we’ll be able to arrange something for the Spring, maybe with my flying over to the UK in the Savannah, but we’ll have to wait for now and see what transpires.<\/p>\n
I’m hoping to be able to make the trip for more than just the one reason because Roger, a friend of Micro-Trike who is moving to the Charente this month, is planning to fly his Shadow over at that time and we’ve loosely pencilled in the possibility of doing the trip down together, from Headcorn at least as far as the Loire, possibly Saumur, before going our separate ways. It’s an exciting prospect if it should come off.<\/p>\n
But that’s for the future. Between now and then are Christmas and New Year and I’m sitting here for the moment wondering what to do with myself \ud83d\ude10<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
