Hello everyone!
First of all I would like to say a very very big thank you to everyone at Colsterworth School for my card! I loved the book with all my goodbye messages. I will be looking after Frederick and making sure he has a good time with me ...
ARGH!
My brain can't actually handle the magnitude of this whole trip! Keep having flashes of reality that I'm literally going to be on the other side of the world in about 30ish hours!

We have anther house hunting weekend planned for Oct 17/18 in Northumberland, but this will just be a fact finding trip. We don't expect to complete a Purchase
... a couple of DVD's that we'd bought and had an early ish night cause it was going to be a rather long drive & ferry crossing.
I forgot to mention I spent about 2 hours trying to fix the leaking kitchen water pipe with no luck at all. I gave up and just popped a stop end on it and left it like that! I don't think it's the end of the world not having hot water in the kitchen!
Short but sweet entry!
Bye

I probably wont write too much over the next week whilst I am back in England, maybe just to say where we have been on nights out. I will then recontinue the main part of the blog when we get to Malta on the 7th.
