So Near - So Far

Last November I took myself by train to Glasgow. It's a great city, I had a good time and plan to return. 

Little did I know that someone I'd lost contact with many years ago was living in a village nearby.

Elin, of Icelandic origin, lodged with my family in Hove while she learned English at one of the many language schools. 

We were both teenagers and got on like a 'House on fire'.

She's now married to a Scot and lives in Houston, Renfrewshire. I really do hope I can see her this year.

I am so excited, it's almost as if I've found a long lost relative.
