    Received, "once a Patricia" today, good bit about the area
    Hope you enjoy it.
    One of my all time favourites.
    He didnt think much of being in a Dutch house whilst being shelled, he much preferred the strongly built Italian casa.
    Hope you enjoy the book.
    Are you planning on going to that area around Wilp?
    If so can we see some photos, please.
