It took 2 years to plan my Mothers visit. 2 years!!

No power.
No power for another month.
Did she whine? No
Did she complain? No
Did she want to go home 4 months later?
No!!
She wants us to build her a house. I think I`ll be seeing a lot more of my Mum!
First thing she said when we picked her up at the airport and told her about the power cut was..."Been through worse in the war..Stop fussing!
We needn`t have worried.
