When do you leave for Bermuda? Have a wonderful time.

HowardC Dec 20th, 2006 05:26 AM

Believe she left last Saturday.

cmcfong Dec 20th, 2006 06:38 AM

Darn. I hope she saw the trip report I did for her. Thanks for the info, Howard.

Are you back?

MarionCK Dec 28th, 2006 05:16 AM

Yes, dear lady, I am back :-)

Arrived early evening yesterday to find my house VERY cold. I had set all thermostats at 60, so the pipes wouldn't freeze. Long story short ;-)....the furnace doied while I was away. Did I say I'm VERY cold ?

Slept with every blanket I could find, pulled up over my head....but my ears, fingers and toes are numb.

Furnace is being repaired, but will probably take 24 hours for heat and hot water to return.

I'm going back under my stack of blankets and promise to write when my fingers work :-)

I should have listened to you about CB, isolated and a bit too strict with rules and regulations...a lack of warmth there ;-)

I am very sorry to hear about the chill in your house. I hope it warms soon!
I am also sorry to hear your experience with CB wasn't what you had hoped for there. I am looking forward to your report. I hope Bermuda itself was welcoming and nice.

Marion welcome home! At least the weather
is not in a deep freeze. I hope you
enjoyed Bermuda. I assume CB stands
for Cambridge Beach---now it stands for
cold body!!!

Marion,
Welcome home! Hope your heating issue is soon resolved. Not much worse than coming home to an "issue". Stay warm! Bet you are thinking about your next return trip to Jamaica! We are thinking about two trips to STJ next year. Hopelessly addicted to the Caribbean. Take Care.

let me join the others in welcoming you back, Marion!

Glad you returned safely but just as dismayed to read about your furnace! Let us know when you're all toasty again and please treat us to your inimitable thoughts on Bermuda and CB when you're able!

Hope that you are keeping warm and that you will get the heat fixed quickly,if it's not fixed already!:)

Oh what a pity you didn't decide to extend your stay in Jamaica. I'm sure Tiverton would have been elated! ;)

P.S. It's soooo lovely and warm here right now. Perhaps you should plan another trip until they fix that heater! :))

Marion will definitely have the last laugh on this... ;)

ejcrowe Jan 3rd, 2007 05:05 AM

Has she headed back down to Jamaica yet, tiv? I know she had a very short turnaround between Bermuda and Treasure Beach.

If you're in touch with her, please send her our greetings and convey our envy! :)

JAGIRL Jan 3rd, 2007 07:53 AM

aha! So she shall laugh indeed :)) Well the weather is quite lovely.So she shall surely enjoy.

...Except that us gardener types are desperately praying for rain! :D
