We have been a host family with Host UK for the past four years, occasionally hosting foreign students over weekends. We have spent a very enjoyable Christmas and Easter weekend with students from China. Host UK is a cultural exchange programme for students from overseas who would like to immerse themselves in British culture by staying with a host family for a weekend. Christmas, New Year and Easter are particularly popular times and the organisation is very short of families this year to host the many students who are lookign for families. If you are interested in hosting, kindly get in touch with Host UK. The regional coordinator is Monica and her E-mail is: [email protected]

I am also happy to answer any questions about our own experience as a host family.

Please do consider using a trusted & reliable cat sitting company. We are always happy to help  https://www.thewinglessbird.com/ [email protected]
    • Vance seems to be  as bad as Trump. If Trump is assassinated, wouldn't Vance just step up to be president? Or doesn't it work like that?  
    • I doubt it was the ice cream.   Lots of winter bugs around.   Noro virus is around ATM and it can have a sudden onset.   It is horrible to see little ones being ill but hopefully it will pass soon.   Call 111 if you are concerned.
