Getting Excited.... Yes - 'Moi'!

Well it's 10am, and I think everything's ready now for my 'best friends' visit from the UK.
I've known Heather and John since we all began working together in an International telephone exchange (now a 'call centre') in 1980....
We have been very close over the years, even if our lives went in somewhat different directions within the company we worked for. We have all recieved, and given to one another, such strong support through various family trials and problems that I guess we're really like a very close family. Who could ever forget the love that I recieved from this wonderful couple the night Sergio was stabbed and nearly died.....their love and understanding was - to be honest - far beyond friendship. And on many other sad and happy occasions I have always wanted to share these times with them.

This is the second time they've visited this house. They came over last year for a month to help me move in.... and I met them at the Mont Blanc as a surprise so on the actual day of 'my moving in' I had them by my side. They've done this once before when I moved 270 miles north from Brighton to Grimsby for my job - and there they were, sleeves rolled up (as last year) ready to help. We're non of us getting any younger these days and despite friends like these, I don't think I'm going to move again!!!! We'll just continue to have nice little holidays together instead!

So in a couple of hours I'll set off for the Milan airport at Linate to collect them, and so will start what I know will be a wonderful week together.

So "Watch This Space........."
