Funds received OK

Hi Nic and Jen. Thanks for your note etc. Funds are safely in your bank. Everything else OK although we are still not signed up 'Ready to Go'. Our buyer is impatient to get in but cannot until we have a definite place to sleep. Solicitors seem to take a long time to talk to each other. We have just had a delivery of boxes to make up, from our removal man. Looks as we are going to spend the weekend making up boxes and wrapping glasses and best china up, to pack.
Hi Pete and Jan, are you back home yet? Such fun to see you all and we look forward to the next Merrow-Fest!
Cathy and John are getting ready to catch the 9.30 ferry this morning on their last lap back to LL-B. We will miss them all. Yesterday we went to Bonchurch to our 'favourite' restaurant, which has bouillabaise on the menu, lobsters, king Prawns and other lovely thing, such as Moules. Mum had sardines, which she felt were too 'small bony' for her to thoroughly enjoy, All washed down with some very nice pink wine.
Julian and Ruth. We hope you enjoyed having your young visitors. We loved the face of a boy, Julian. I doubt that it was a p from provence, but lovely just the same. Who is the beautiful boy??
Did you have a good test run on your proposed new car, Gemsie? Looks to be a nice little mover. Thanks for everything, Steve - we hope to see you soon. We will keep you all informed as to our move - could be September! Love from Dad.
