Well we're here. It's so good to be back. The sun is shining, there's less people about, everyone looks so happy..the pace of life is so much slower..
I had such a sense of relief when we walked out of the terminal to our hire car. Flat sold, I'm home after all these months.
Done a lot today - bought a ute - secondhand one from Paramatta Road. Exactly the one I was after, as well. We spent an evning at a cafe on the beach, watching the sun go down..the wait makes it all worthwhile..
Mrs B loves it - she says, is saying:
"BADGE BADGE wake up WAKE UP..you're dreaming!"
Sod it. It was all a dream...
outside it is dreary and wet here in London.
only a few weeks to go!

I was reading and thinking, 'hey, is he there already. Why didn't we hear more about the leaving etc'!! I was thinking, 'hmmm, I know my memory is bad, but still.....'

I dreamt last night that I was a Irish immigrant to America in when ever it was - Titanic style!! Although there were no icebergs.
This daft idea of ours to go in search of a better way of life is definitely sending me potty!
