The honeymoon is over

Ok, holiday is over, perhaps that should read.

Tomorrow, we fly back to London. Bugger. Friday, the 25th, we arrive in London, 7am Terminal 4. We have arranged some temporary accomodation, so we will head there and dump our bags, and then its action time, going to the bank, boring stuff like that.


Our car, aka ´the DL´, is up at my old work, so on Saturday we have to go and get that. Gerhard has been looking after it for us, taking it for a run once a week, that kind of thing, and apparently she is still all fine. We called her the DL after the District Line tube, because she is green (so is the district line on the tube map) rickety, and slow (so is the district line).

The weekend is a bank holiday weekend, and I start work on the Tuesday. Yep, already. I am going back to the M1 job I was on, but in a different department - earthworks. Apparently the team leader up there has been asking about me every second week or so. So it will be lots of running around with a GPS putting in lots of pegs for me. They are paying me more than last time, yippee. Its only a 6 - 8 week contract at this stage, but that´s what they said last time. I hope it´s only that, and then I can start something new, get my teeth into something different.

So, its all over for us, back to the grind!

Wow, I can't believe your trip is over already... it seems like only a week or two ago that you started this blog. I guess it's good you've got a job already cause you don't have to worry about trying to find one. Onya love!
