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!!

I think you bought the monsoon back with you after this morning's downpour! Will need to pick your brains next time you are up about a little (?) matter of how to stop rainwater getting into my gas boiler through the vent - never happened before in 16 years but twice in one month now! I think British Gas will refuse to come out again....
What colour van do I need to look out for - no good telling me make and model.
I think Nigel is delighted that you are getting back into work mode.
See you soon. J x
