Ann, Not far from us at all. Villa is fantastic, spent lots of time shopping for 'extras'. Was bad weather first few days we were there. Parks really busy! Luckily not working this week :)) Will have a look at suggestions tomorrow, but don't hold up vote for me if I don't get chance. Dawn

We still have a few votes missing, I am hoping Jean durant can get an input from Maz, not sure if Lorraine is on line and Kaz has still to vote. We have until 5pm to get it sorted so fingers crossed they can all make it. (And TOR if she returns home of course, I believe she is away too. Obviously not a good weekend for us to be doing this.

As Lorraine is possibly not on here at the moment due to problems with her membership I have pm'd her for her vote. I will therefore extend the time until later in the evening to allow for her to get in from work (I assume that is why I have not had a reply to my message. Ann Glos
