Nice to have you back with us. Yesterday, 2nd Cathy and family returned to Wales as they have a wedding to sttend and Thomas's birthday party (He is 12 tomorrow - 4th August) Both boys are growing up slim and handsome and we will be seeing them again on their return to IOW on about 19th Aug. Gem and Clive - no worries as we have plenty of room for you - let us know what date you will be coming to IOW. You may have to eat with an enlarged family. On Monday we all went down to Niton to a new cafe John has found, We left them to walk to Ventnor ? 3 or 4 miles along the Coastal Path, but as they left, the rains came down and by the time we met them in Ventnor they were well and truly soaked. We stayed for a drink at the Spyglass and luckily we had some spare jumpers etc in the car. Undaunted they spent an hour or so digging in the sand before returning home to Mum's dinner. Next morning they were up with the squirrels and left at 11 o'clock to catch the 11.30 from East Cowes.
Welcome back, Pete and we hope the girls have arrived safely in Benllech. I spent all August on Anglesey in 1943 (aged 16) as my Uncle Jack lived there in Llansadwrn, with wife and family of 9 children as he was doing secret war work in Beaumaris.
Two cousins Roy and Reg were about my age and we had a super boys holiday. I hope the girls enjoy their stay. Lovely views of Snowdon.
