Taffy's coming back on the 17th August (lucky sod!) and I'm coming back on the 5th September. As much as I long to go home (to NZ I mean, yes I do class it as 'home' now ::): ), I am staying for an extra few weeks to spend some more time with my 3 children who decided not to come to NZ with us. Taffy will have to cope without me for 3 weeks, so be gentle on him everyone..... :icon_wink:

All ticking over nicely here, though the weather's not holding out as well as we'd hoped. Meeting up with Sara and Ian today so we're looking forward to that :icon_biggrin:

Glenda, with regards to the airport security situation, I would hope that the higher powers don't think UK citizens are expendible, so I guess it has to be money. Having said that, there is massive development work going on at the airport, so they can't be short of a bob or two....

Anyway, off to experience some more of the good old UK :icon_eek: icon_exclaim.gif
