Great Joy and Thanks

Al the optimist

Veteran Member
It is with a great joy that after weeks of suspense that I find my mother recovered enough from her ailments for me to be able to leave and her in just the capable hands of others. Yippee!!!!! Prayers have been answered!!! Thanks to all who helped me with them. My eternal gratitude to you. So now it's off to give thanks and seek a blessing at the church before travelling to Liverpool for a flight to Madrid. Hopefully I will meet our Mikel Olivares from Cizur Mayor near Pamploma at Madrid airport as he is flying in from Sicily. So we can chill out before catching the 1:15 bus to Pamplona and walk out together. I'm a very happy bunny right now. :):):):):):):):):)
