hello

I think it would be more unusal if you didn't get mixed feelings at this stage but you wouldn't have come so far already if you didn't feel it was the right thing to do so don't lose sight of why you wanted to come to OZ and try and focus on what will be great about it rather than what you are leaving.

It is an exciting adventure so enjoy!

Funny I was only thinking today as I was driving down the road in this bizarre and brill country..."I am so glad I didnt listen to all the niggley little doubts that crossed my mind in the weeks leading down to arriving here"

I had loads of doubts...its normal...but I love it here and cant imagine having to go home,I have to pinch myself regularly to make sure I aint dreaming...or should I now call it the UK
