OVER 50's+ MOVING BACK TO THE UK - Part II

Re: OVER 50's & 60's MOVING BACK TO THE UK - Part II
For me it is not so much the travel as that Wee Mac is alone for too many hours, I do have a lady who will come in starting Monday to take him out for an hour every day and I am hoping that will help. Unfortunately the car will also be used to go to clients homes and do assesment, but I do get an allowance for that. It has been a very busy two days getting used to how the new office works, they are really into micro management which is great in the long run but not so good when you are new, seemed like all I did was ask questions.
I am sure everything will settled after a few weeks, it is just getting through the next two weeks, Well better go , Mac is wrestling with the sheepskin rug and losing the battle. Barb hope you get a decision on the job soon but I am sure you will make it work either way. Jackie, welcome home I am sure you are soaking up all the love.

Hi, everyone..
Well its been three days, and my sleep is still all messed up, but it is great to be here. I have had fish n' chips, sausauge rolls, and am up to about 800 on the cups of tea (witch may have something to do with my sleep being messed up)..lol. The weather is very cold, yesterday was sunny, but today it is gray again.
Good news Dowton Abbey has already been on here, but they are going to show it again soon, so I see the rest of it
Bee and Don, not long for you now..its funny, as soon as you get here its almost like you never left...
Will wright more later...

I've been reading Enid Blyton books to Dd lately, and theres an awful lot of being gay and having a gay time in those, I just switch the word to happy Otherwise my little parrot will be shouting I'm have a gay day or gay time all over the school yard and I'll be having a chat with the teacher

I think Randy is actually short for the name Randall (?) And you're right - it doesn't have the same connotation here!!!

Hi Cheers,
The days including the travelling start at 0500 when I get up and finish when I get home at around 8pm. The travelling is a killer, so I am going to look at a used car sooner rather than later, my only problem is that back in Canada I actually knew quite a bit about cars including what an engine should sound and run like. But here I am a bit of a fish out of water and worry about buying a real lemon that will cost me more than it is worth. I have looked on the internet but I am not sure what is a good car and what isn't, some of the name are not what I usually would see back in Canada. My dad owned a Singer Gazelle bought it brand new and remember how comfortable it was.

Especially in UK where I have found people help people,
Take care,
