Home again

A lovely weekend and we saw many of the people we wanted to. There were 10 at dinner on Saturday for J's side of things, and 14 on Sunday for mine! In addition I caught up with T&E who had dropped in to see W&R, and also a couple I hadn't seen for over 11 years when we visited M&S. Sadly we missed J&B because their cell-phone had changed.

Our flight details are:
Monday 23rd April, Depart Dud 0720 Arrive Chc 0815. Dpt Dud 1050 Arr Singapore 1745.
Tuesday 24th April Depart Sng 1120
Wednesday 25th April Arrive Heathrow 0550.

We have between 2-4 days in London to get our bearings then (at this point) we go to Bristol to find work and accommodation. If the agency comes through with anything between now and then though, we'll go where they find it.

Today we booked the CRV in at Turner's Car Auction for Thursday's sale. We hope to get >$7500 for it. We'll just have to drive the school van around after that.

Ray was still in hospital when we got back, as he has had a few complications. However he is hoping to be out in a day or two. He's happy now that he's allowed a beer ration every night.

We had lunch with C&O who are still on holiday this week. They are both well of course. Not too many opportunities left to catch up with them now.

While out, I picked up the new book on Massa Albaneta and I'll read it on the trip over.

So, not a lot happening just now in the lead up to the big move, but a rather large 'to do' list is sitting on the bench...
