Thanks everyone...I'm totally enjoying the food, and the weather. LOL. I posted an update on the 'Back Home' thread, but I don't know how long it will take to post.

At the moment I'm sitting on my bed, eating a sandwich with some Lancashire cheese and looking out the window at the sheep dotting the hillside. I'll take a photo and post it :)

Hiya ! :) Still liking it so far...:rofl: Not missing AZ, but it seems like everyone there is missing ME ! The house is apparently too quiet and the room mate has no-one to talk to anymore :rofl:

Need to get myself sorted with somewhere to live and I'll be happier. The flat didn't work out (posted details on my update thread in the Back Home section), so now I'm having to revert to plan B.. :rofl::rofl::eek:

:thumbsup:Well I made it :) As most of you know from following the flight tracker, I was delayed leaving Phoenix, which meant I arrived at Heathrow late. lol. So instead of having a wonderful couple of hours at Heathrow, I landed at about 2.10pm and my next plane started to board at 3.15, so by the time I got through to the domestic gate, it was about 3.00pm.:rofl: Of course on the flight to London I had THE most annoying child sitting behind me who constantly had her feet on the back of my seat and was pushing. I asked her Mum nicely to get her to stop doing it, but she was disobedient and didn't stop AND she wouldn't stop screaming at the top of her voice every time she wanted to unbuckle the seat belt and her Mum wouldn't let her. Nice child ! So didn't get much sleep on the way there.

I grabbed a taxi at Manchester Airport and got to the B&B around 6.15pm. I went for a quick walk, and then went down to the Diggle hotel and had home made cheese and onion pie, chips and mushy peas - all washed down with a nice pint ! :)
Of course after eating that I had to go for another walk...lol. The spring lambs are bounding about and I walked up the moors for a bit and watched them scamper.. By then it was getting dark, so I've made my way back to the B&B and now I'm sitting here watching the telly with a nice cuppa.

The scenery is so amazing and it's blowing a gale here right now, with the odd drops of rain :D I'll try to take some pictures and get them posted as soon as I can. Jet lag hasn't hit me yet, but I'm pretty sure it will sometime soon. lol

Now someone just needs to tell me how to update the location on my profile :)

I'm tired, but exilerated about being home ! :) :thumbsup: Now I just have to get myself a job and get settled. I know I'm going to get fit walking, because on Google Earth it doesn't show you just how windy and steep the roads are.. LOL

Thanks to everyone for your wishes and for following my adventure on flight tracker. I made it ! :)

Can't find your other post so will post on here! So happy for you love, glad you finally made it and thanks for the post was great to read! Sending you a big hug, lots of congrats and am looking forward to following your 'back home' posts! :thumbsup: x

Thank you ! :) :thumbsup: It's been raining since I arrived, which is wonderful after the AZ weather.. :rofl: But it just looked a little overcast this morning, so I went for a walk and sure enough it started drizzling so I kept walking anyway. I was soaked by the time I got back....guess who forgot her brollie??:rofl:
