Home!!!
Although I am back I have project related leave…….technically only 6 days but I am having 2 weeks because I have so much holiday left! That means, this blog is only updated for a couple of weeks and it finishes!!! YOU KNOW YOU WILL ALL MISS IT!!!!

Monday, chill out day! Rubbish night sleep cos I am in UAE work time mode! Wake up at stupid o clock! First thing….on the phone to the insurance company…..bike insurance please! Rest of the day (mega sunny, and warm (I use that term loosely as I still wore a THICK hoody))………walked round asda for shopping……is nice to be in a supermarket you recognise! The evening was not so good......Phoned my mum on sunday to see how things were and she had told me that Harley (my beloved Black Lab) was not so good..he was 14 and a half (good age) and basically although he was mobile and alert, inside his body was shutting down.....Monday night she had to make the hard decision of taking him to the vets with my bro. I saw him at christmas and they were coming up to visit this weekend coming, but it was not fair to wait any longer. Completely and Utterly Gutted! will miss ya lots Harley!! xx

Tuesday, insurance papers arrived…..straight to the post office……TAX please! And a long awaited afternoon of getting re-accustomed to my toy! Had the odd text from CJD, but not really spoken to her since we landed. Went to Cadets in the evening…..same old squadron….good to see the numbers have increased in my absence….plenty of new faces both staff and Cdts………..almost like I never had a break!!

Wednesday, BIKE BIKE BIKE! Round Cheshire countryside, stopped at a traditional English country pub for a DIET COKE! And proceeded to play till evening, went to visit some family in Frodsham and realised at 19:10 we were supposed to be at a restaurant for 19:30....oopsss....sufficed to say it didnt take very long to get home ;-) i love bikes!!!!!!……Met up with a load of Air Training Corps mates in the evening…..went for a chinese buffet. Was great to catch up with them, hear the goss etc……Even got a rendition of Happy Birthday sung to me in the restaurant and a cake with candles, because they missed it when I was away…….was soooo funny!

Thursday, Lakes….yeah I am going to blast up on the bike, CJD and her mate in the car….WELL, that was the plan….except Idiot here didn’t check when the MOT ran out! Erm….Wednesday night!!!!! So sheepishly I drove to CJDs in the Beeza……..i also have to admit to getting wildly lost on the way to hers…., bundled in the Merc and went for a lovely afternoon in Ambleside, Windermere and another place that I cant remember the name of, but know we had to cross a lake on a ferry…….nice “warm” sunny day out and about! Julie was in a wheelchair (a wheelchair that I nearly tipped her out of!!!)….she had bust an ankle, so plenty of re-enactments of little Britain sketches (Andy) “don’t like it”………very funny! CJD came to mine in the evening so we could swap all the Doobers piccies over…..i will upload them onto facebook shortly……
