Coming from America...and Guernsey

It has been a few months since we have had visitors here at Monte Pego although to be fair we haven't been here much. Like London buses when one set arrive the next one is not far behind and the visit of Niki and Jeff from Guernsey was followed almost immediately by the arrival of Ian and Tess from Minnesota.

Both sets of friends have reappeared in our lives after periods of absence. Ian was a university football team-mate who I hadn't seen in 20 years until last year when he came to visit us in London. We discovered then that 20 year absences don't impact on the ability to discuss football trivia and of course we had a lot to catch up on. We had a fantastic time catching up and meeting Tess for the first time.

When Suzanne and Niki got back in touch after a mere five years or so it turned out that Niki and Jeff had been over to Monte Pego to look at buying a house here. It's a small world. While they decided not to buy right here it looks like they will be getting somewhere quite close by thereby adding to our growing colony of friends here.
