Hi Jeanette and Brian, Just got away from baby Roisin to catch up on your adventures. I see ye are still having a ball! I am completely jealous, your posts sound like something from a dream and the photos are amazing. Roisin is lovely. we took her to see all at teach elto last sunday so she has been introduced to the family. My e mail crashed so I will email when I get a new account (it could take a while I am such a technophobe!)Miss ye lots and lots, from the newest mammy on the block. Ruth xxxx
