Here at Last!!!

Well, after chatting to each other on messenger for all these years, we have finally met each other for real! I was slightly worried about Linda's visit, as extreme weather (of the bad sort!!!) and mishaps have followed them wherever they have gone on their UK tour!!!

And true to form, our first day together was a wet miserable day - but we are British, and rain doesn't stop us, so we still went for a walk in the forest, and showed them the countryside! Of course we finished off in a lovely pub for a nice meal!

Luckily the next day was gorgeous, and so we jumped into action! We went to Gunwharf Quay, and followed the millenium walk to Southsea. The millenium walk is a trail of rope embossed paving slabs, that leads you round interesting sites and ending up at a funfair - it was a lovely walk. I'm not sure who had more fun at the funfair, the kids or Alby!!! Actually, I think it was Alby!! Unfortunately, time flew too fast, and today they have left to move on for the final leg of their tour before returning home.
They must be absolutely shattered!!! But only a couple of weeks and Linda will be back in her box in my craft room chatting away again!!! Let's hope it's not another 6 years before I get to see her for real again!!
