Jun 27, 2007 - J & J are back in the UK

Hello All, As the title would suggest our adventure is over and we are back on home soil. After 3 hours in hospital, time was no longer on our side but with one last (huge) effort we managed to get back to the hotel, pack our bags, complete our suit fitting and buy the last of our bits and pieces with 20 minutes left to shower change and hail a taxi - Phew that was a close one!

Who knows what the future will bring for J & J but I know we will face it together come rain or shine.Hello All, As the title would suggest our adventure is over and we are back on home soil.
