Actually Ive been bounding round europe since i was 18, but whilst visiting home for easter this yea mum fell down and had a stoke good friday morning and now is in a nursing home in a bad way, I am in Canada now with work but the 4 months spent back home reminded me how the UK has changed a lot! since I was a kid.

It was nice to walk round winchester and I even went exploring a bit like a tourist, but everyone is so stand-offish, rude in shops, everyone seems to be a forigner, the hospitals dont seem to care. But as I stepped out of my childhood home knowing Im probably neve going to step in there again and took the last of mums boxes and put them in the van, bound for france! I suppose I will miss it a bit, from a sentimental point of view....

Naah. Putting the deposit on my 250 acre, 6 bedroom farm soon

Mum will love it here when I get her out the home and on the porch so she can watch the ships go by!
