To get there we took a scenic route which was beautiful, because you could see the old and new Dubrovnik. I was amazed to see the walls, gates and watch towers. We got to our apartment and met the owner Zoran. Zoran, who always said ‘no problem’ and ‘super’. Had a great sleep.

SMOKE DETECTORS
We all know of the benefits of having smoke detectors.
Do we all remember to change the batteries on our smoke detectors – every 12 months?
Do we all remember to check that each smoke detector is working by pushing that ‘test’ button – monthly?
