friends indeed

Hi all, well yesterday steve and i went along to Manchester to meet up with some friends that wwe made whilst out in India on our travels, we were working in the local community in Jaipur and the four of them were all working on a conservation program also in Jaipur,
Every 2 weeks we would meet up in a co ordinators house for a meal and a chat , we actually only met up a couple of times but kept in touch through mark in Manchester , yesterday Trish flew in from Dublin and Colin and Matthew came up from London and we crossed the Pennines from Huddersfield to meet up with them .
It was a great social weekend and we had a great deal of memories to chat over , photos to see and it was really a lovely time,
we ate out and visited a few really quaint and unique old pubs and then went back to an apartment that they had rented , it was a short walk from our son Chris and his partners house ,
this morning once again we met up and had a stroll around the city , even going up on the huge city wheel for an amazing birds eye view of Manchester and its surrounding areas, all too soon it was time to say goodbye , with promises to all meet up again soon, i hope that we do , it was strange as it all happened 14 months ago and yet meeting up again was all like it only happened a short spell away, good to have met you all again and thanks for a truly great weekend !
