Melrose?
I wasn’t planning on going to Melrose, it’s quite a bit of money for just 2 of us (Duke won’t come again, he has precious little leave adn isn’t a social bug!) when you add in fuel (okay, so most of you travel further!) and the fact that we don’t join in with communal meals because they are always stuff that she won’t eat so we end up either battling for space in a busy kitchn or spending more money eating out, and the annual sickness bug (why does this never happen at other hostel "camps"? What goes wrong at Melrose? is there some sort of curse on the place?) but now I know many of Aprilia’s friends will be there I’m feeling a real cow for not signing up, especially as it’s only half booked and she really misses certain friends who are going to be there.
So I’m wondering, who is going? Does anyone go past our house on the way up (she won’t be sociable by the end of the week so there’s not so much point inviting anyone on the way down unless we leave a day early to give her time to recover a little!) or would anyone fancy a visit to us for a few days instead of or as well as Melrose…..
we’re going. I know what you mean about being unsure about going. I was like it last year, but really enjoyed it despite the bugs. No idea why it’s always that one that is so bad.
Btw can you send me your password as I’ve no idea what it might be!

obviously we’re going! Stop trying to poach potential people you. Come on, won’t be the same without you. Tell me what she likes and I’ll volunteer (despite saying I would not cook this year!) to cook a communal meal that suits you both. besides you’ve got the tea towels :p
And this year no one is going to be sick. I’ve decided.
