Arrived safely after a good flight managed to get some sleep we had 4 seats between the 2 of us. Gatwick was misty and gray , and still rather gray this afternoon, but saw my first snowdrops and daffodils are all in bud. Doesn't feel too cold not as cold as Florida as been this winter.
I can't wait for the spring its my fav time of year:D |

B x Well I can't believe the time has finally come from when I was marking off say 60 days on my work calendar to now.......one sleep to go. :eek: My boss phoned me yesterday and said I am to stay on the payroll on leave without pay while they work out the logistics of this job and he will email my contract, it's all sounding very positive, but I did gently remind him that while I am happy to stay on leave without pay it can't be indefinitely as I will need an income, just a gentle nudge. ;) I had a really nice day yesterday with my friend from Liverpool, I was only going to stay for an hour or 2 but it turned into 6 hours of yacking LOL!! :lol: She is one of those really unfortunate people who is truly trapped here in Australia and hates it. I felt so sad for her as I drove off and counted my blessings that I have this opportunity.......... |

Hi all.....a quick update from the UK. Arrived in Manchester Wed am - dog and I intact. It was drizzling with rain in Manchester, but it was a welcome relief from dusty, arid AZ.
For those returning to Manchester with a pet, I can't praise the clearing Agents, Pets On Jets, enough. They've been a wonderful source of support and advice throughout the final stages of the DEFRA process. Got a ride from them up to Scotland and arrived safe & sound, if a trifle jet-lagged, mid afternoon. It's raining and windy today, but who cares? I'm home! :D Barb, I think you're next? Best wishes for a safe flight, happy landings and exciting new beginnings! :thumbsup: |

Bon Voyage, Beedubya as you return from Sydney to Manchester via Abu Dhabi!
(I had to connect via Abu Dhabi airport a few years ago, not sure if it's been updated but the flight connection waiting area was strange....round and like an mushroom with green and white tiles everywhere and nothing to do apart from buy expensive coffee!) Difficult to work out which flights Beedubya will be on (did she post her flight # anywhere?) but I think they are: Depart on Etihad Airways 26 FEB (almost a day ahead of UK and USA) SYD to AUH on EY 455 (dep SYD local time 9.50pm, arrive AUH 05.40am) 27 FEB: AUH to MAN on EY15 Track flights on the Etihad Airways website or on Flightstats.co.uk or Flightaware.com |
