In an English country garden...

And so the two weeks of taking on the lone ranger persona has come to an end. The family will be returning today from their trip. They had left me list of chores to do in the absence and monday will be inspection day. I hope, but not to worried, that everything I did will be to their satisfaction. My plans for my next trip is slowly taking form and will hopefully set in the next week.I have made an appointment with the Nehterlands Embassy for my Shengen Visa application, this was done telephonically :), for the 25th of October. I pray that my application will be processed within two weeks for I want to fly to Holland on the 8th of November. Through my travels so far I have calculated that you need about £30-£50 per day to travel cheaply in the UK. To raise the funds for this you need to work 2 days for every 1 day of travel. All is well further on as I count my remaining days of pulling weeds, cutting grass, cleaning hoves and eating nothing but veggies. Silent apologies for not having an update last week as I know that some folks check my blog everyday, and it gets pretty boring reading the same old story over and over, but once the boots starts walking, these lips start moving, and the counter starts clicking again, I will update more freqeuntly. O yes, btw, today is my birthday, 25 if you don't know it. Happy happy! I think I'm due for long missed juicy hamburger as a present. We all can save the guilt for another day. I would say that the last year was a good one, a lot of changes, a lot of smiles, and many warm fuzzy memories.
