From Weds 9 April 2014
Next day I went by train to visit my mum, while Dave stayed with Rob and Tanya. On Thursday both of us independently got out into the woods, me in Somerset, Dave near Derby. Mum and I found a not-quite-yet-bluebell walk in the woods by a lovely stream.
Then we moved on to Shropshire, where Dave and I were reunited, and all five of us Rowan siblings found ourselves in one place at one time - not a frequent occurrence. So we lined up on the sofa to recreate a photo of the last time - when Annie and Alice were so young they fitted on our knees, and there was a lot more room on the sofa!
Then we did THE massed family shot - siblings lined up in age order (in comfort on the sofa) parents standing at the back, partners squished on the floor at the front (missing only Mike for a full house). Everybody's cameras were lined up precariously on the back of the opposite sofa on timer, and - say cheeeeese.

Everyone else left by Sunday, so Dave and I took the air rifle out for a walk, without significantly scaring any wildlife
Time to leave - farewell to Dad and Jane
Arriving back in Preveza, in the crush at the baggage carousel.
Something weird happened at check-in, my enormous bag was only half on the scales when she fixed the weight - so it went through as 10 kilos - thank you Ryanair!
