Back in the UK

Thanks to everyone who has been reading my blog since I started it last year, and especially to those who have commented, but as some of you know, there were reasons why the posts got thinner as time went on, and unfortunately there will be no more posts from Canada as we have returned to the UK.

There are many things we will miss about working in North America, but the main thing will be the fantastic people we met whilst we were over there, and hopefully we will have made some lasting friendships, even amongst the people we never met in person, but just corresponded with.

We both wish everyone still working at H&R, and elsewhere the very best of luck in the future, whatever that might bring for you all.

Lots of people are missing off this picture as I didn't have any snaps of you, but I'm sure you know who you all are.

Summerland, near Kelowna B.C.

Earlier this year, a fruit cooler in Summerland, where we waited all morning (after being told we must be there at 8am) to be loaded.
There is a hand written cardboard sign inside here which basically brags about how long they will take to load you if you complain!

We are currently visiting Micks cousin near Cowichan Bay, and then we'll return back over the Rockies to Calgary to fly out to the UK, where we will take stock of our situation, and when we are definite about our plans I will post something on here, or probably Mick will.

Luckily we arrived here in good time as H&R got us a load from Calgary down to Lethbridge to begin our vacation after trying to send us on a load which would have brought us down very late, but they did try bullying Mick into doing that one first after telling us that our time off didn't start till midnight (we had been available for work since 7am that morning).




We are hoping to meet up with the music writer Homercat today... woot!
