Over to Ireland and then to the beach...
Well the Terry's have made it to another ancestral land for both Chris and Kath. One of Edward's friends posted a photo with the caption "come to the UK it's summer here", the picture is of people in raincoats and umbrellas. We've made to Ireland and the weather ... well ... I guess the weather is the reason why everything is so green here. …
