Hi Shona, thank you so much for such a wonderfully warm welcome to New Zealand. Your hospitality and generous kindness will be talked about for many years to come. The bedroom was beautiful, clean and warm with the added extra of the electric blanket! Your home and in particular the beautiful court yard garden was a source of relaxation after such a long journey. You are such an interesting lady with so much life experiences I hope many more people share your conversations and home as Beth and I did. I really hope I can return some of your kindness when you next visit the UK.
