6 sleeps to go

I CANNOT wait!!!!!!

I fly back to UK on Sunday 19th and this will be my third visit back in 8 years. But this time is going to be different, this time I am not travelling alone.

I get to show my ozzie BF and my best girlfriend the best parts of the UK and also southern Ireland. This time it is going to be a holiday and not just a trip back to show my face with friends and family.

6 SLEEPS - God what will I be like by Saturday!!!

3 visits in 8 years???
you've had MOREVthan your fair share

Been here nearly 5 years and not been back once... So I feel its MY turn

So are you going to descend on your MIL on Christmas eve and outstay your welcome then??
(Ducks and runs)

LOL - very popular then???

I'll come with ya, been here over just over 5 years and been back once, my daughter is 21 this year, so getting her a flight for her birth. She is taking the ozzie BF with her, i cant wait to hear what she thinks, personally i think she wont want to come back to oz and knowing her BF well, i think he'll feel the same.
However she'll be back to finish her degree, and then the real unsettling stage will begin

but sasbear have a great time!! !

Thanks I will - I suppose it is a must for me to go back frequently as all my family is in the UK. I have the step-daughter here and she is expecting my first grandchild so that will even it up a bit.

Yep, ive followed your story a bit, let us know how its all going.

Will do - found out that son (turtletom) is having his ceremony to be sworn into the police force, so that will be fantastic to be able to be there for that. And topping that is that daughter has agreed to spend a whole day with me and also for her and her bf and me and mine to go out for dinner! Not going to get my hopes up too much but am just going to go with the flow. Hope you can get back for a visit one day.

Jeez! You gave birth to her... She should be taking YOU with her not her bf...

naaah, couldnt afford 2 tickets, (BF paying his own way..although i suspect his mother is hleping, lol) and also i couldnt leave the youngest and would even feel guilty at leaving OH

Have a great trip Sas! How exciting for you to be able to see your DS graduation ceremony as well - good timing there!

Makes mental note not to mention any illegal activities

Thanks Quoll

Hmmmm -

have a safe trip and i hope you have the time of your life!
