Coins!

Yesterday I got given a 50p & 20p coin in change which is not really unusual. Unless you've not seen a heptagonal coin for a while, which I hadn't! Being back is full of those little reminders, things you didn't even realise you've missed. Janet said I looked shell shocked last weekend. I think you were right Jan. It certainly is weird being back!
I must confess that flying in to the UK always warms the cockles of my heart. To see the green countryside below welcoming you home is always special. The rain is not so nice. It's rained nearly every day since I've been home and it's cold rain!! At least in Asia the rain is warm. Normal life (if there is such a thing) is about to resume - I am supposed to be going back to work on Monday. My thoughts are of travelling though! Still trying to find a suitable van to purchase without a great deal of success. I'm back in long trousers, socks & trainers, agghhh!
Had a look through my pictures yesterday too, not good for settling back into the UK although definitely put a smile on my face, memories!
The worst of it is that I should still be there! If I'd sorted my head out & not made rash decisions I'd still be living the life of Riley. Idiot!!

Blighty!!

Well I'm home! Hi to all, I'll catch up with you over the coming weeks. It feels real strange. There were definitely benefits to being thousands of miles away. I miss it actually - think I'll be away again soon. Home is good but a bamboo hut on the beach with no brown envelopes coming through the door is better.

The weirdest thing. I can't remember my password for my laptop! I typed it at least once a day for the 10 months leading up till I went away and I do not have a clue what it is! I can remember all sorts of other passwords/codes but that one will just not come to me. Maybe it's a sign - leave work alone Billy! Bloody frustrating, sitting, staring at a screen, typing in word after word and still no access. 10 Gig of music, 3 gig of photos and all my other files - oh dear! Let's hope something jogs my memory.
