Thanks for all the comments re the blog - we have had a few problems as the 'stick' ran out of money in Paris so had to go to Vodofone in Guildford and get extra funds added. Phone ran out and very frustrating as Rich had to phone Australia in the end.

Wednesday 4 May
Slept in today - must have been the Montegridolfo red, we had with Sally & Phil last night!!! Had a lovely evening with them - plenty laughs and memories of the old country. Rosalee been here 12 years now. My voice just about gone and concerned there are still many more days of chattering!!! Val phoned this morning and I couldn't talk to her......... Had a trip around Woking and a really nice shopping centre, then Rosalee took us down the road/side streets etc. which will take us to Chalmers at Basingstoke tomorrow. Could be an interesting exercise.
Rosalee & I still chattering - out for a pub supper and really enjoyed that. We have been able to get work done on the blog by sitting in the communal lounge -no comms in our room or Rosalee's place so have provided some intertainment for the older residents!!
