I saw one - the set in the wall type - in a Cornish village done the same way on another blog.<br /><br />I'm posting now on South Africa. Was I close to where your family live when we flew in to Nelspruit/Mpumalanga airport? We were driven from there to Mala Mala - it was night and a very long drive, about 2 hours. SA was fabulous once again - even the Cape Hunting Dogs had come back to Mala Mala from Kruger - so now I've seen just everything wild in that beautiful land!<br /><br />Stay well, your turn to be waited on soon I think!<br />Hugs - MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11915239653283205065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32992882.post-71443247456076334152012-08-10T01:07:34.594+01:002012-08-10T01:07:34.594+01:00Yes, very well done Jess.
