Holding On

S is quite touched that our Host and Hostess are looking after him and the house so well. However, it appears to me from 6000 miles away, that since they designed the house themselves, no doubt supervised every last detail during its construction, and finally furnished it so lovingly and lavishly, they are actually having real trouble letting go of it. I fully expect that when I get there in two weeks time, they will have decided that it's not worth going back to their own house each evening, and will have moved into the spare room.
