Bring on England

Well it was good seeing everyone again up north, but 2 weeks goes fast and all of a sudden its time to leave again. Bags packed, mike, mum and dad and i were off to the airport. Stopping of course at the Autobahn for breakfast. Pete met us there for breakfast as well, it was great to see him and say good-bye. A bit strange tho, its usually him leaving. It was a teary good-bye. Both mum and i cried, dad and mike decided they were the staunch ones. ha ha ha. It was hard to leave the people i loved, and as in true pip fashion, i cried for the next hour. The flight to sydney was good. 3 hrs with a 3 hour stop at the airport. Back on the plane heading for Bangkok, 8 hours away. This was the hardest part of my trip. I didnt sleep, and was exhausted by the time we hit the airport. But i did met a Brisbane couple travelling together. They are due in England in 2 weeks so we swapped emails and have agreed to catch up when they get here. I walked around for the hour and a half stop at Bangkok then slept the first 5 hours on the plane heading for Heathrow. Wow what a view!! Made everybody on the plane laugh when i wanted to take pictures of all the houses being exactly the same. And all joined together. And all the same bloody colour. George picked me up and we caught up at the local. Do as they do!! Yep i wasnt complaining if i had to have a pint in the local, then thats what i was gonna do. Life was good.
