Dear Alan Thank you for making Swanage a home away from home, as well as introducing a new family of Swans to me! This house was always a safe and loving palce to return to after a long hard day or night at Bara, and that is all thanks to your endless hospitality and generosity. Highlights for my time at Swanage were the family dinners, with great conversations around medicine, family, careers, finances and your life wisdom. I loved running around the golf course and of course using the weights set and gymn bench in your beautiful garden. On my first day you took Xavier and I to Sheads to show us the SA prices of steaks, which I will sorely miss when I'm home. Thank you for cooking for us and teaching us how to cook a Texan style steak. Outside of Swanage, thank you for all your tips about travelling around Joburg and South Africa. Xav and I loved our time in Cape Town and Pilansberg. And it was with your quick message we managed to see a pride of lions. Thanks again and I wish you all the best going forward., I'sure future swans will enjoy this as much as I have. Hopefully I can send some your way.
