After several weeks of trying we finally found a weekend that fitted with visiting a university friend of Mark’s from …1984. We had caught the train down to Guildford in Surrey to finally catch up with Christine (who has barely changed at all in the past 25 years !) She came here for a holiday in the 90s with her then husband Jake and they never left. Now with two adult daughters Christine is heavily involved in local council affairs and leads a very busy life with her partner Geoff. They are surrounded by gorgeous green rolling hills (including some where Agatha Christie went missing!), the home of Lewis Carol, the family home of Richard Branson (he did not start from nothing!) and quaint, quaint villages. It was wonderful to catch up and stay the night and then be driven around some of the local sights and villages again under beautiful clear warm skies.
