Tuesday 31st March.
We have just come off the Skype phone after speaking to and seeing Jack and Lyn in Mc Crae,Australia via a video call link up for the first time! Sadly they could not see us due to technical difficulties but any day now we will get the technology working! They have also seen and read our blog-page about the wedding and saw the pictures that we had posted from the wedding;yesterday we rang Norah,Brenda’s sister in Runcorn to tell her to check out the blog so as she could also look at the pictures and tell Jenny,Brenda’s other sister on the Wirral about them.We have also started to write up a family tree as we put names to faces from the Facebook wedding pictures ready for when Jack and Lyn visit us in June.

CASA OLIMPIA.
This morning after packing and getting ready to move out we had still not received a phone call from Chris to confirm when they will be back so we had to go down to Tarifa to stock up for the weekend again;the sun is out ( 24 Degs. and Rising) and the wind has dropped so we found the beach at the start of the bay and took the pictures below to show what a spectacular setting it is here in Tarifa.The first picture shows Joan and Brenda on the Web-Cam after lunch as we practised using it for the first time! They are now sat on the balcony having their afternoon tea and cake in the very warm sunshine.
PS; Chris phoned in the late afternoon and we don't think that we will be home before Monday at the earliest,the start of week six-the saga continues!
