Sorry for slow news - all's well!

Sorry for slow news, specially after the difficult journey the visitors had - we wanted to give you news but found we were 7 miles away from communication (really!)

But we've had a great residential in Yorkshire and all is well. 

Arrival was complicated by
- visa issues and complications
- ID issues - so the group travelled in two groups (Amman/ Tel Aviv)
- weird cancellation issues at Amman... TWICE?! But third time lucky
- snow at Manchester airport, so the Tel Aviv group due to arrive at 00.30 am were diverted to Liverpool and arrived on a bus in fact at 7am
- one coach getting a bit lost before the farm track to the place we were staying
- no working phone line there (although we were told there was)
- no mobile reception
- no internet...

After all that, the residential was great.  A lot of reports will follow. 

Here are some photos of the arrival day in upper Wharfedale (Yorkshire Dales)... The snow/ unpacking before the coaches arrived/ meeting / playing / eating
