This shift, geographically, physically and mentally is welcome. Business is good (hence the delay in updating blog entries!) and we are getting to see parts of the UK we have never visited (or in some cases, knew existed!). It is quite the revelation.
Since returning (and in between short return visits to the South of France and the Lot - more of that later), we have met and made friends with a number of new humans, felines and canines.
We have lived in a town house in Kent, spent time by the sea in Goring (with the added excitement of an impromptu trip to Brighton where we met up with friends from New Zealand!!),
travelled in excess of 1000 miles to a job near Aberdeen in Scotland, toured Loch Ness and Loch Lomond and currently we are enjoying the scenic Suffolk countryside - and we're only half way through the year!!Our frequent trips to the south of France were prompted by the sad death of the husband of a regular client of ours - we were simply grateful that we were free to help out. A last minute request to help another regular of ours provided us with a week long stay in the beautiful Lot Valley - and there we were just getting aclimatised to the English weather!!
Aside from a couple of days without bookings (for which we were grateful as we had the chance to catch up with family and friends), we have been pretty much fully booked.
We relish the journeys and Bristol, Toulouse and Nice airports are almost home from homes now but hey, how can we say that when wherever we lay our hat(s) these days are places we call home!
