A old school friend that use to live in Leeds and was in my class at school for five years emigrated to Canada over forty years ago called me yesterday via Face book messenger phone app , it is amazing what technology lets you do .When he first left the U.K we would write letters and became sort of pen pals , then as time went by we would send cassette tapes with messages on them send them to each other via air mail , tonight we was on the phone for nearly half a hour and it cost nothing amazing .
If we save up for the air flight there is a good chance he can put us up at his house which would be a holiday of a life time we can go next September which gives us a whole year to save up and get sorted .It would be the best holiday i would have ever had , plus the farthest destination i have ever travelled the length of flight would be a major pain but i put up with it to go to somewhere my Father was going to emigrate to back in the day but bottled out at the last minute .
My son called to see us this afternoon he liked our home unfortunately on the way home his car broke down he as only got it back recently after it was in the garage for a month he is not impressed .
Helen's son Liam called with his girlfriend this afternoon as well they too liked our van we went out for evening meal to the Foxglove .
