Yep it is!
Had a wonderful day today. Went to York Minster Cathedral. What a fantastic building feat for people a thousand years ago. Not quite as massive as the Duomo in Florence, but impressive nonetheless.
Tim is getting used to being a pseudo Pom. He even likes the local beer. (It all tastes the same to me) He is calling Accrington- Accy like a native. If you are interested Accrington Stanley won 2-1. We got mentioned 3 times by the ground announcer (I'm going to kill Alison)
Tomorrow we will go to Burton Abbey and Skipton Castle.
The relies are currently watching Corrie (Coronation Street) so have taken the opportunity to make myself scarce. They actually tape it and send it to Perth. There is no accounting for taste is there? Every night we get a "special treat" (not) we get to watch Home & Away and Neighbours. I go into a semi-trance until the football or something comes on.
I am getting used to this English keyboard- nothing is where it is supposed to be, but there are less typos - have you noticed?
That's all for now as I really only wanted to access to get more photos on.
You will hear from us again soon.Much love

What an adventure!
Hi there, glad to hear you are both having a wonderful time. I log on every night to read your daily adventures. I love the 'what we learnt today' comments. lol. Beats watching the car racing with Brett. Can't wait to see all your photos when you get home. The kids say 'hi' they loved the photo of Tim outside the pub. Chloe says she misses you both. Kaz xx

Deja vu
Wendy and Tim, I've had great delight in reading your experiences in Italy and the Uk. It seems you have had a lot of fun, hot on our trail. You still need to work on the navigating/driving the roundabouts in the UK. We think we've finally sorted exiting roundabouts and reaching the correct destination - but it's definitely a 2 man job! This last visit was our third and the best by far. It's a bonding or divorcing experience! Glad to hear you are happy and not too many disappointments so far. Love to you both, Lee
