2 weeks tomorrow and we're off back to the mother country for a fortnight of manically trying to see as many family members and friends as possible in a short space of time. These trips are not really a holiday as there's never enough time in one place to relax, but it'll be great to get home and see everyone.
D is particularly looking forward to going on the plane. I, on the other hand, am fairly dreading trying to keep 2 small children occupied for 8 hours!
Did some pre-blighty shopping this afternoon (it's cold there so obviously need a new winter wardrobe) which is always good to cheer oneself up (if of course, you can ignore those damn salespeople (sorry alex!)).
Posted by katie at September 24, 2004 03:03 PMYou live in Toronto... how on earth can you justify to yourself that it is "cold" in the UK... especially as you'll no doubt be going to the icky warm south <g>
Posted by: Aka at September 24, 2004 04:22 PMLOL - it's been in the high 20s (high 70s/low 80s for anyone who doesn't understand real temperatures) all week in the Toronto area. Isn't that warmer than it gets anywhere in England at any time of the year? :-)
Posted by: Steve at September 24, 2004 07:22 PMYeah, but it'll be -20 there next week ;)
