Sounds like my Sunday Lunch
All luck and Patience, but I do a smashing steamed sponge with syrup, it will be on the menu when you both come home. Just giving you something to look forward to as you are leaving a lot behind. Syrup Pud I can do - Penguins Naaa. As usual the pics of your travels are wonderful and I know you are making the most of every minute. Love you much - keep safe Mummy Jean
