Have a whizz around Tesco's for me eh?!! You lucky ........:p

So glad, a week in, and you're still loving being back! Long may it continue. We're still umming and ahhing, adding up costs, doing the pro's and con's lists until they come out of our ears. One day it'll all come clear.:confused:

The weather is warming up here and barbi season is upon us. Remember how much fun the first few are? Then they drive you bonkers....same old people, same old grub, just a different backyard!

Take care and keep in touch xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Ah Kath! Welcome home girl!!

Pretty chilly 'ain't it - cold weather seems to have come in really suddenly over the past week or so.

Glad all is slotting into place - hope it all continues to go well for you and your family over the coming weeks.

Hi Kath,

Glad your home safe, you sound really happy, great feeling eh?

I have been back nearly 5 months and the happy feeling has stayed with me, thought it might wear off after catching up with all that I had missed, but no, still feeling it! Oh happy days!
