The only thing I am missing desperately is my 20 year old son who wanted to stay in the yUK. Although we speak on the phone all the time it is not the same. To be honest we always used to come to Tenerife for three weeks over Christmas and New Year because they are more 'Traditional" here but with a brilliant atmosphere everywhere, Oh and the :sun. The only thing I miss if you can call it that is Mellow Birds Coffe, but having said that I could go to Iceland out here and pay double for it if I was that desperate but am I. No, I just give hubby a list of things I want brought out on his next visit which are supposed to be every six weeks. After his initial 2 weeks prior to going to Notary he went home on 1st May and was back by the 16th for 5 days, [suprise for our anniversary] Then he came back on 22nd June for 10 days so as you can see I don't have to wait too long in between. He is not back out until 30th August this time [well he has got to do some work]
His next visit after that is 27th Sept for 10 days. Then I am going back for a week the middle of October for my Dad's 80th [suprise] and our very good friends silver wedding anniversary, oh and of course to take an empty suitcase to Primark. Then in November hubby, son and 5 of his mates are out for his 21st for a week, then he is booked for 14th Dec until 4th Jan. along with 4 of our very good friends. So as you can see there is plenty of opportunities for him to bring all my 'home' comforts . As for getting a lump in my throat when flying back into London, for some reason that doesn't happen anymore and hasn't for a long time, I used to get the lump in my throat when we took off from here. I think that is how we knew we were ready to make the move. As for the sun, I have had a word and it said it likes it here too much but may make a brief appearance in the yUK at some stage in the future but it couldn't say when
