  • Very true SJ!

    Well friends I have news.... We have an Air BnB booking :j:j it's for tomorrow night, and is a Brazilian couple and their baby who are visiting the area. It's perfect for a first booking, as it's just one night it gives us the chance to see just how comfortable we are with strangers here. I'm sure we will be fine, and from small acorns etc....

    DH thinks that the fact we have children will appeal as a lot of people looking for accommodation will have children... We'll see.

    In the meantime, £100 OP made :):) off to update my signature.

    Best wishes, ATB xx

    Hello ATB (loving the user name - your focus putting paid to any stereotypes :))
    Just to say I've read through your diary and am massively impressed by how much you've done in the last few months. Will be following for continued inspiration and meantime look forward to hearing about how Air BnB went ….
