Hello Marc,
I was in Portugal and then I collected my van in the UK. Actually I might
leave it in Bristol, they have some good places to leave vehicles there.
I'll see if I can catch you & the crew when I am in London next :-)

Hi Karen,
I'm sorry I missed you on Sunday. To be honest, I think I just needed a
day off after doing so much...
Actually, I was not aware that you were in the country. Last I heard you
were travelling in your small van around Europe, you nomad you...
Have nice time in Bristol, I think you know that I used to live there -
let us know in advance next time you visit the gallery.
Oh yes, and much thanks for coming anyway - have been getting many calls
from others visiting so I think it's going to be quite a well attended
exhibition.
wishing you well.
marc
