End of year

Hi, I’m back in the UK. Hope you had a lovely Christmas and ready to "slide" into the New Year. We spent a few days in Italy with my parents, friends and family. It was nice but short and terribly cold. Freezing cold! We had to come back earlier as duty called. VAT, and of year account etc. cannot be completed if we are in Italy enjoying ourselves. The problem is that it's getting more and more difficult for me to leave Italy and above all my parents. They are not getting any younger (who is after all???) and I always leave them with a heavy heart. But we are back here now and all we have got left are a few photos to remember ....
