Hi Everybody

Nic. after removing from heat, stir in sugar and then the flakes until they are well coated. -- sorry about that. Love to the children - wet kisses all round.
According to my calendar it is only 12 days to your birthday so, as we are starting our holiday TODAY by travelling to Southampton - there to stay the night at the Express Holiday Inn, before catching the 0835 Flybe to Alicante in the morning (Sunday) Happy birthday for the 27th. What is that? - 45.? Takes me back to my days in the bank at Aylesbury.
Yesterday I went to the dentist in Ventnor where he relieved me of two teeth 3 & 4 top right. Having previously taken impressions of the 'before' and sent them to the dental mech to prepare, he just slotted in the improved plate and bob's your uncle. Trouble is, this morning the gum is sore where he injected it prior to taking out the teeth and I cannot yet wear the plate. I look like the wicked witch in Snowhite!. Time will heal, I hope.
Mum is improving and with the ?warm sun of Spain and nothing to worry her, I hope she will improve quicker.
Pete tells me that his Mac is u/s at the moment so when we can read the blogger or write to you all again will depend on if he can get it fixed.
Love to all in Provence and Wales (if John's computer is working). (Cathy has invited us to LLanddewi for Christmas. Will we be seeing you thereSteve?) Pete's phone is 0034966896368 where we will be until 7th November. Cheers Dad and Mum
