Great pics. Some lovely homes. Now, for that blister, get some Compeed blister patches from the chemist. They work well to prevent and treat blisters. I used to use Moleskin in Canada, but I can't find it here.
Glad that things are going so well for you.

Thanks for that.. I might need to get something because I just took a look at the blister and it covers the entire fleshy area under my big toe.. lol I hate that squelchy feeling as you walk on it. lol

Oh my goodness, what lovely pictures. Makes me even more homesick and your room is gorgeous. You have your own shower and its modern and not all mold! The only reason I say that is when I went back the place I stayed in had some mold issues, especially in the bathroom.
So happy you are adjusting well. Yes, there are so many good shows on t.v over there. I liked "come dine with me" but it may not be your cup of tea. All that walking around. When I was back I went for a walk every day. My family doesn't really enjoy walking but I used to tell them it was a novelty for me as living where I live I rarely get out to walk . The weather is starting to turn nice it looks like from the pictures. So glad you have kept all of updated. We so appreciate it..

Bless you for sharing those photos. I can't believe how easy they were for me to pull them so as I could view them.
It is a little scary you being on the banks of the canal with no one around but you know best.
I saw your lap top on the bed. Did you bring it with you and does it work well. I just got my Toshiba back after being a couple of years with my son and so I have to learn how to operate it on the WIFi.
Cheers

I've worked 12 hour shifts before, and as long as I'm busy the time really seems to go faster than it does for an 8 hour shift. At least to me..
But I'm getting older of course and it will depend on whether I'm sitting down for the entire shift, moving around the warehouse, or standing up.![ROFL](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/rofl.gif)
The sun is actually out today - shock !!!
It doesn't feel cold, so today is a perfect day to go explore the other side of the canal, and this time I'm going to take my camera with me.
I haven't had a single twinge! I'm not homesick...but I do miss my friends. I do miss being able to watch Hell's Kitchen...lol But there's so many new shows starting soon that I'll be spoiled for choice!![Thumbs Up](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

PS loved the photos too, and that nice plaque on a seat that was in memory of an elderly couple I assume, that was very touching
