Another visit imminent!

Well, the good news is that we've sold our folding camper today, so we're planning another trip over soon to do some more serious research into moving permanently.

I've been sorting papers and emptying drawers, and a few things have gone on ebay, and we're planning on what to bring and what to leave, and hopefully we can make this happen - and hopefully this year! The house sale will be the main sticking point, the way things are going at the moment. We'll see.

Hope to meet up with the tykes again when we visit.

Hi Diane,
Good news about the camper, pity it couldn't have been the house eh?

I hear from the kids that the weather is dire in Barnsley, don't pack that in your case.

Let us know when you are over.

Great news Diane, lets hope the house sale starts to move.
Look forward to seeing you again at a Tykes meeting when you're over.

Yes, we have to think about the house next, although we need to do a bit of decorating first.

The weather hasn't been too good, but it appears to be getting a little better. Still had the heating on some days!

We're now booked into an apartment in Peyia and we've booked the flights. I will PM you the details Geraldine, rather than broadcasting on here, and we can make some arrangements for meeting up with everyone. We are going to be there for a full two weeks this time.

Just trying to sort out a hire car. Anyone know of any good ones that are reasonably priced?

Hello, we use Elephant Rent a Car. Ask for Noni. Always gives decent prices BUT cars always come with a full tank and in a v.good condition.

I am not associated to them at all just passing on my recommendation.

Regards
Simon

As chairperson ofthe Tykes club Geraldine will have to organise another meeting when she has your dates.

I vote for lunch at the last castle

Dennis seconds that

Thanks Simon - I checked Elephant and they were actually more expensive than a couple of others we found. Anyway, we have now booked it with Argus Car Hire, to pick up and drop off at the airport.

Veronica - we will go along with whatever is suggested. Will get in touch with the chairperson now!

Oh, and I guess it will be a little warmer than it was in January!
