To Russia with love

Today was another moment that was typical of our life here in Manchester. We had been enjoying the fact that Derek, Sandra and Leon had been round the corner enabling us to meet frequently and chat, eat and importantly, play Pro Evo. However, that moment was short lived as they have moved on to greater things awaiting them in St Petersburg.

As the last few years have shown, many good friends have been and gone leaving serious holes in our lives. We are totally grateful for the continuing friendships both here and beyond but it is becoming very difficult to see people go. So, you all know who you are...WE MISS YOU!!!!

To the Brower-Fachs, we really hope you have a great time over there and we would love to be able to come and visit. We hope you don't mind the picture we posted but we thought it reflected the good few weeks we shared whilst you were here in Manchester.

Hope Lev finds his monster...he has fluffy ears!
