We are due to set sail on Wednesday. The dogs' passports are ready - they are Spanish citzens already having brought them in to the EEC from Ecuador where I lived for several years. They spent six months in Spain before being allowed into the UK. When we arrived at Madrid airport I found them going around the luggage belt in their travelling boxes. Nobody asked to see their papers and we wheeled them straight through. After spending 6 months in Spain (a stipulation by the UK authorities despite all their paperwork), we brought them via ferry from Santander to Plymouth only to find that we were waved straight through and no papers were checked.
I have been sorting through my boxes that have been up in my parents' attic. While up there I came across my mum's quilts and have taken photographs of these and put them on my website www.activeenglish.co.uk . She's very talented but alas I did not inherit an ounce of her creativity.
