The Beginning Of My Blog

OK, well this is the first in what I hope to be a regular installment of my life for all those who are bored enough to read about me!

Sadly, as I’m sure most of you know, I’m back in London on a not-so-pleasant visit as my nana sadly passed away last week. I'll be here until 10th August when I’ll be hopping back on the plane. Can't wait (serious sarcasm intended) for my rather unexciting and rather brain hurting journey back to Sydney. There's nothing like a 20 odd hour flight to make you happy!

Currently having real issues with Hewlett Packard customer services as some hardware is broken and have time on my hands in front of the laptop while they respond! Could be here for a while so I thought I’d be productive and write to one an all. The weather over here is surprisingly nice, I even saw the sunshine for 20 mins which threw me a bit - I know it's summer but, 20 whole minutes?! I was mightily impressed.

Spending my days at home with the family and the evenings catching up with friends. Time is flying by in an instant which is always a worry. This time next week I’ll be outa here. Planning on another visit back to London and Europe as a whole at Christmas. I can't seem to get away from this place! Dragging Billy over with me as he has never been here before. Think it's going to be a shock to his system! When I get back to Australia, I’m just focusing on getting my visa application sorted. Hopefully the whole process will only take a month or two; otherwise I’m going to get rather stressed out. Having to leave the country every 3 months is starting to aggravate me!

Anyway that's enough from me, I’ll be catching up soon, need to get back to HP and start kicking some proverbial ass...

Hi Danielle . . .

Am I the first to post a comment ? Sorry to hear about your Grand Mother. I always think is such a shame that most families ( at least my family anyway) only get together for weddings or funerals. You've had to travel a heck of a long way to get back to see you family.

I like this Blog thing. Sounds like a good idea. Can you post your photos here ? Come on girl, I thought you were a photographer ! Lets see some of those pictures of the beautiful Down Under. . . Ooops ! that sounded a little rude – honestly, I didn't mean it to be rude ! OK – I’m gona go now that I’ve made a complete fool of myself.

Have a safe trip back to Oz and enjoy your time while you are back in the Big Smoke.

For the record : my Grandmother’s funeral was a hoot ! You can’t beat an Irish funeral. She was 97 and every one who was there came to celebrate her LIFE and not to be all sad at her death.

All the very best – Ken !
