By way of testing out the system, This is a short entry to do just that. Right now the house looks less and less like ours, as all our personal belongings are carted off to hibernate in the loft 'til we return. There is just so much 'stuff', and every load I carry to the loft, I chant a soft mantra to do with living a simpler, less cluttered life....... We leave for the 'World Tour' on thursday 21st august, catching our first train at Hassocks at around 10-10.30am for Victoria. From there to St. Pancras, where we ride the Eurostar [View Full Entry]

Well end of the week and have made Brighton. Wednesday headed to Leicester. Longest run yet. Traffic on motorway so I stick to the A roads. Went to Ceroc in Leicester - not a bad class. Thursday headed to Althorp and stayed longer than I expected, so called into Cambridge. Had a look around, but a bit dissappointed that there is so much commercial shops right in the centre of the town. Ran out of time so looked for accommodation. Stayed in Suffam Prior a little village outside of Cambridge. B & B but ended up in the holiday cottage that [View Full Entry]

Its nearly time for us the leave the shores of England and head to Malawi. Our flight is tomorrow night. We still have to pack and do various things before we leave but we are nearly done. We can honestly say the last few weeks have been as exhausting and as emotionally challenging as they could ever be. Our worldly goods are on a boat to Australia, we are both unemployed and we are at Marc's parents place living out of a suitcase. But we are so happy. Happy to be following our dream, and happy that we can support such [View Full Entry]

Friday 1st August Well, what can you say... after a restful morning, we (Mary, Chris, Tim & I) do what all good Brits do, ignore the weather, and head for the beach. To be fair, it was a sunny day, but we didn't check out the wind levels! Mary had bought us lunch... so we headed for Camber Sands. Soon hired a wind-break, Tim took charge of putting it up whilst Chris just hid under his hoodie and Mary & I held up bits of the wind-break and tested the windiness of where we were. Proved why I've been hired as [View Full Entry]

Last day today, we go on the coach from Brighton to Heathrow at 7.55am tomorrow. Carol is making us some cheese scones for the trip, just in case we get the munchies on the way. Today was a beautiful day,29 degrees, a scorcher for this part of the world. We made the most of it and went to see the Bluebell Railway with Carol and Ernie. Love those steam trains! Enjoy the pics, see you back in Oz. Byee. [View Full Entry]

This is a bit of cop out blog, as it really applies to about a week ago and it'll be made up of emails that I've sent to various people. But....there you go. Extract from email to parents- 8 July: just to summarise, the last few days we've been learning about exactly all the procedures (and there're a lot) needed to run the camp, the resources open to the teachers and what we need to do in the lessons. the house duties is a lot to remember (tho we are given checklists) but i'm a bit more worried about the teaching.

Hello again, we've been out playing the tourist again. Must say lucky with the weather, the sun has been out the last couple of days.

Anyway, enough waffling, on with the show, here's some more pics to check out. :-) [View Full Entry]
