As an afterthought, how about the special poem composed for us:

The time has come for us to go away
Sadly, for we have much enjoyed our stay
Exploring every nook of the estate
Eating and drinking, talking until late
Swaddled in hospitality and care
Surrounded by peace and beauty everywhere;
Swimming or lying by the pool to roast
To John and Mij ‘Thankyou’ is our toast

John and Rosemary
