To answer your question, Scott, we have been staying at the mission office in Birmingham. Sleeping on bunkbeds and without a fridge. We keep a little carton of milk in the fridge downstairs in the main part of the office. It has been very interesting but not too bad. Tomorrow we are going over to Hereford and will be staying in a "room" at a guesthouse of a member. She will serve breakfast only and there are no cooking facilities in the room, so \i guess we will be eating out or eating bagels and peanut butter. We have some leads on some apts but haven't actually been able to look at any yet. All the letting agencies want you to either have 3 years residency in England or a "guarantor". We were able to get the Church to sign a paper today to act as a guarantor, so we are hoping that they will accept that. Everything takes a lot longer than you want it to and we are getting impatient to get settled and get busy.

We just got back from dinner with Elder and Sister Long. We went to a small Fish and Chips place and then sat on a park bench to eat. It was very good, but we certainly could not eat it every day. The countryside is beautiful. It has been raining most of the day today and a little cool. I love it. We have been to Walmart twice already and Costco once. They are similar to those at home, but carry a lot of different things. The foods especially. Well, tata for now.
Love, Elder and Sister Henry
