Isle of Manness

Its lovely.

All of it.

Particualy the people that live there. ...well two of them are perfect!
She asked me on the way back from the airport what I thought her house would be like, I replied that it didnt matter. And it didnt. I knew what it would feel like. (for the record its perfect, the furniture is beautiful and there are little things everywhere that tell you alot about both the history of the house and the people that now live there)

I was put at the top of the house in my room. You can see the most beautiful moving picture of the island from the window, and in the mornings I opened the cirtains and just layed in bed and stared.

Their hospitality was amazing. I'm sure their usual weekends dont include an enormously loud laughing drunk guest! But I am so glad they didnt mind! (lovely husband did, it has to be said, look a little 'oh dear god' at times, but in true lovely husband stylie he covered it well!! xx)

It was just so good to re-connect with her again. I cant imagine not being able to do that. She makes me feel safe and loved and whole. The opportunity to have no barriers up with someone is a remarkable thing.

something along the lines of "oh dear god, how much wine have I drunk?" I would have thought

No need to worry about the spoons in future, I picked up a couple from Jurby so we can hide the good ones next time...
