HI there Wombats? Do you have any idea when you might land in sunny Nortumberland? Just want to make sure we've rebuilt the kitchen in time! lol! Then again - we could always have a BBQ! :lol:

It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Hi Helen!

Sorry to be a pain in the bum but our organisation is a little loose......I think it will be Tuesday or Wednesday but will ring as soon as we have a better idea of the ETA.

Just for the record.....we are camped out in a Premier Inn at the end of the M6 tonight and tomorrow will cross over into the wilds of Scotland tomorrow morning *cue suitably stirring and explorer type music*. :mrgreen:

Remember to keep your passport at the ready for the border! Hope you have changed your English pound coins for good old Scottish pound notes!

If you are heading south down the A1 to Milims, you will pass our door by half a mile. More than welcome!

Haven't seen one of them for a while! And they don't fit into Lidl's trolleys.:mrgreen:

But you'd better keep your Scottish phrase book handy... :wink:

The stress will drop even further away and the beauty of the scenery will increase even further :shock: (although the lake district along the M6 does take some beating :lol: )

This is so exciting, seeing Wombat being passed around from pillar to post (Ishers I mean) :cheers: :lol: . Next time you've got to do SW England and France!

Well I can certainly recommend the Wombats as house guests. We had a great time and the cats really enjoyed being made a fuss of.

Hope you guys enjoy the rest of your holiday.

Cheers
Zoe
