Four weeks later...

Well its looking increasingly unlikely that I'm going to write up all the posts for the trip around the USA. I'll be honest with you dear reader, I can't be bothered. If you're interested in the Rail Trip have a look at Paul's blog (though don't believe a word he says) or just ask me in person. I'll gladly go through the photos with you. I've got about 400 snaps, and there's story behind everyone of them... Speaking of photos, Gav is the process of putting up lots of his ones from both Canada and our trip. There's a link from his 'once dead but now showing signs of life' blog.

So what have I been up to. Well this and that. The first week I was home I caught up with friends and generally started to adjust to being back home. In some ways its been easier than I thought, in other ways harder. As I said in my last post the BUNACers had a night out in London just after we all got back to the country. For some reason I didn't put any photos up, so here's some now.


Wa-hey! Andy, Paul, Alan, me, Gav and Simon outside the Maple Leaf. Its supposed to be a Canadian themed pub but it just smelt of sweat, smoke and stale beer... like all British pubs!

Something tells me Andy's gonna be alllllllright back in London

All the Scotch together. Gav, Alan and his bro. That tongue...

A touching moment between an English man and Scotch man. Why can't we all just get on?

Grrrr. Blogger is playing up so I can't put up anymore photos. Actually think that's why I didn't put them up in the last post. Never mind, just imagine a photo of Simon and me almost kissing and another of Paul and Andy by an Oxford Circus tube sign.

A week after I got back Jade arrived in the UK. It was fantastic to see her. In fact as I write this, after spending three weeks with her, I find it hard to believe we were apart for so long. Yes, we are at that sickening lovey-dovey stage still. Must be very annoying for everyone else... We went to Bath for a few nights when she first arrived which was good fun. The following week we went to Brighton to house and cat sit for my friend Ruth and her hubby Jon. I also got to meet their baby boy Bevan for the first time and he is an extremely cute baby. Big eyes and fluffy hair.

I've also seen Steve's kid Ben a couple of times and it staggers me how much he's grown. His beautiful as well. Must be something in the water.

So yeah. I've been keeping myself busy. Tomorrow have my first day of work since being back. Just a day of temping t some office in the West End, but I'm getting back into the swing of things. Just got to sort out getting a 'proper' job now, then I'll feel properly settled.

If you use Mozilla Firefox, then you should be able to put up as many pictures as you like. But then can you trust what I say?
