Today was my last day in Nottingham. I had a meal in Tamatanga, my favourite restaurant in the world ever, with Ruth and then 4 hours later and still stuffed, I had a buffet in May Sum with the family! (Still managed 3 plates and a pudding.. quite hungry now actually.) After all this food I still had to come home and pack.. pack my life into 20kg of luggage. Pretty easy really.. apart from having to leave 10 out of 11 pairs of heels behind. :(
I still have 3 nail orders to complete before I leave tomorrow and I have just found out that my webcam is dead and therefore an emergency trip to curry's is in order tomorrow morning :)
It's weird saying goodbye. I said goodbye to Ruth, who I hadn't seen in a year.. hmmm.. and I've hugged people that I've never hugged before too!!!
Well anyway, the presents and card received for going away will encourage me to travel for long periods of time in the future. Nottingham tea towel, Nottingham lace sewing kit, (well posh), some euros and a couple of naughty bits. ;)
I hope you enjoy my blog about what I get up to over the year! It won't be interesting, cleverly written or witty in any way...it will be factual.. and the main aim being... getting out of having to tell everyone the same thing over and over and over again :) x
I remember feeling a similar way when I was ran off to become a holiday rep and trying to fit my life into what seemed an inadequately sized suitcase. I was nervous about what I'd find and who else would be there, but after a couple of days I settled in ok and then continued to have 6 months of the best fun I'd ever had in my life. I'm sure the same will be for you, too, Lindz. And I, for one, will look forward to your blogs.
ReplyDeleteAlways look on the bright side of life and remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure, how amazingly unlikely is your birth. And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space, coz there's bugger all down here on earth!
