Was hoping that today would also be a nice sunny day like yesterday turned out to be, sadly the cloud cover which returned at the end of the day yesterday is still very much there.

It does not look like the clouds will lift today although I will be optimistic all day and hope that the cloud cover gets broken.

Be very good if the clouds would lift for tomorrow so that it is good weather for a change for my cousin Katrin’s visit.

Would be nice if the weather were pleasant tomorrow so the two of us can go out together; be nice even if it were just to the café overlooking the canal around the corner of our street.

Richie has a very busy day today, shopping and getting our spare room ready for Katrin tomorrow.

Also for Gareth and Paul next week, exciting that we will have friends staying with us for three days next week.

Really looking forward to their visit very much before MS we often had friends stay with us and it was always a great pleasure.

Our best Christmas was when we had arranged for a friend Cari, to stay with her young son Zebe and then another dear friend Jaya asked if she could stay too.

We did not have a spare room then, so Cari and her son had our bedroom and we slept on the sofa which turned into a bed and Jaya slept on our couch.

It was the best Christmas ever, we all got on so well, and we really enjoyed those ten days together tremendously.

Really a beautiful time so glad we shared that time with those three special friends, nice to have such a special memory.
