On Wednesday we head overseas, country hopping our way to Aussie – the oldies gap year (without the rucksacks and hostels!!). We’re going to keep up our blog – probably not daily but as and when interesting events occur.  So we’d love you to join us as we record the highlights of this second retirement adventure.  It pays to be old sometimes!

Suitcases at the ready, hair freshly cut, pedicures, manicures, waxing and injections all ticked ✅, visas and international driving licences sorted, accomodation details all checked, (walking boots well and truly left behind!), a selection of swimwear and sarongs to see us through 6-8 months of arduous pool and beach lounging!!  

For those family and friends that we have not managed to see before heading off, farewell for now and we’ll look forward to catching up in 2018.  We’ll be contactable by email and WhatsApp while away and would love to hear from anyone – it’s going to be amazing but strange being away for so long.   Apologies in advance for lack of birthday and Christmas cards this year – you will all certainly be in our thoughts. ❤️

Can’t quite believe the time has actually come – have been planning it and ‘mentioning it’ for 15 months!!  The Roses have finally left the building. xx
