Hi,
We are sorry to have missed you (Mike & Gloria, the door opposite yours).  How long will you be there for? We won't be back over now until October (for a week only) and then January, or February for a couple of months.  How long will you be staying for?  Barbies on the roof should be fine, but a long way to lug the equipment until the lift is working.  As for the TV, we really don't know.  I have to admit we didn't miss it a bit for the 2 weeks we were there and it is pretty low on our list of priorities.
If you bump into Kevin &  Marie Shannon (Block 2, 1 E) whilst you are there say hi for us as Kevin is holding our key whilst we are away, they are a really lovely couple and I am sure Kevin will have got all sorts of useful information by now.  Let us know how you get on.
 
Mike & Gloria
