Next holidays I have great plans… I am finally going to visit London! I have wanted to for a long time. My niece is training as a doctor and is on a 3 month exchange there, so I thought I’d go and visit her. I will be there in April, for just under 2 weeks.
Two of my friends live in Middlesex. They are just outside the SW fringe of London, on the River Thames and a the nearest large town is called Staines. They are also about 15 min drive from Heathrow. One of my friends has offered to drop me off at the train on the work mornings and pick me up in the evenings! He also says I can visit Cambridge for the day on either of the Wednesdays that I will be there, as he will be going there himself. Isn't that great?!
I will also stay with friends in Holland and another friend and his fiancee will probably put me up for a couple of nights in London, as well.
My niece is excited too, as she says it will be so nice to see some family again by the time I come.
I'm glad you noticed - makes me feel warm and fuzzy! I'm getting broadband soon. Dial-up takes too long on the Goodies site, so I generally 'don't bother'. I find that with another of my favourite sites, too. I also have some RSI, so avoid excess typing. It means I don't write as many emails as I used to, either.
That's understandable, but it's always nice to hear from you and see that you are still with us in spirit, even if it's hard to spend time here. With my schedule lately, I'm surprised I even get time to look in as often as I do. I'm probably slacking off, but don't tell my boss that
Broadband is good. At least I think so, and lets face it, I spend far too much time on the net as it is, without having to worry about how long something takes to load.
Sorry Dafty, I have to have room to bring home a copy of the Goodies' new DVD, which is being released this month and I'll be there at the right time to buy!
