Jo36 Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 I'm still slightly worried but also excited about the whole idea . My concern is my grandad is 82 and thinking will I ever see him again but I've spoken to him and he really supports us . He had an opertunity to go when he was younger and regrets it so that makes me a little more happy ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
