Two Weeks to go...And I am a Lady of Leisure

After a few relaxing days in Littleborough and some teary farewells, last Wednesday I made my way back down to London for my last 3 days of work. Leon stayed behind to spend some time with the family and on Thursday faced the challenges of getting his wisdom teeth extracted. Normal people would go along and hope for the best but Leon (being the inquisitive man that he is) decided to watch someone getting their wisdom teeth extracted on YouTube!
After a few gruelling hours in a swanky West End hospital, he managed to eat and drink about 3 litres of water and off we went in a cab at midnight back to Fulham. Still suffering but feeling slightly more human, Leon is back to work tomorrow while I look forward to my first week of being a Lady of Leisure. After two days I am sure to be bored senseless, but at least there are visas and injections to keep me busy for a little while yet. Four days left for Leon in the office and then we are both officially on a 9 month holiday!

Three Weeks Today....


After a weekend of 30th Birthday shenanigans and an evening of curry and Attenborough's Life, it has dawned on us that in exactly 3 weeks' time we will be on our first flight, Hong Kong bound.

This is our first holiday together and unlike most people, we decided to skip the niceties and take a 9 month vacation.
Good bye Littleborough and London... we will miss you!
