At last managed to get some wifi that my bloody phone will connect to.

So wish I could have met you guys for the Cornwall part of your trip. Wish the weather could have been better (won't tell you what it's like here in Spain) you guys have a great & safe trip will catch up on my return.

Have fun
Raven
