🐹 Gary & Gloria are back! 🐹

The schools have gone back, the nights are drawing in, and two very familiar faces are back at The Woodhouse Centre!

Gary and Gloria have been on their holidays, and as you can see, this new couple are still very much going strong! ❤️ They had a wonderful time in beautiful Derbyshire, taking in the countryside and enjoying some well-earned relaxation.

Although, judging by the photos, it looks like they spent most of their time eating… and drinking!? 😂🍎🥬

Welcome home, you two! We’ve missed you! 🐹🐹❤️
