        We will be here as long as it takes to find the property we want, we have had to take the 6 month minimum rental.

        Ziggy, Southwell, can't get much farther down, about half a mile from the Bill and then France!
        Peter, we did feel lost without it.

        Thanks Shiney,it's been a stressful time (and I don't usually get 'stressed') having all the problems with our buyer but in the present economic climate we couldn't afford to loose him. As we hadn't/haven't found what we what we had to move to a rented place for the time being and that was just before our holiday. As you say we have time but we don't want to still be here at Christmas.
        I'm sure Oscar will have some other plants to look after/lay on.:D

        For Armandii, pics of Portland.
        Looking out to the 17 mile Chesil Bank, Portland Harbour and Olympic Academy on a very windy walk this aftrenoon.
