Time to post

Well its time I posted again. Have been very busy with work and home life...no excuse I know!!!
Christmas is here once again. Merry Christmas everyone and a Happy and Safe New Year 2011.
Lots has happened in the last twelve months. Have had some ups and some downs. No use complaining, I think you have to live one day at a time and deal with any problems that arise.
In August Martin and I went to England for a holiday for 4 weeks. We had a fantastic time there visiting his family and friends and for me it was an experience of a lifetime. Martins Mum and Dad are lovely people and first time meeting them, they made me very welcome into their home. I was very sad to leave them and England and had a few tears when it was time to say goodbye. But there is next year to look forward to...hopefully we will be going back for Christmas in 2011. I would really love to experience a "White Christmas". We also spent 4 beautiful days in Dublin, Ireland (I still cant believe I have been there). Most certainly will be returning there for more time next year. The worst part of my trip was the long and tiring flight. All up was 24 hours sitting on a plane cramped up and not wanting to go to the toilet on the aircraft. Little did I know the toilets at Brunei airport were holes in the ground with a toilet seat. Managed to find a "normal" toilet anyway so all was fine in the end.
Martin is now on holidays for 4 weeks and I have 18 days off in January. We are off to Tasmania on 11th January till the 18th January and really looking forward to showing Martin where I come from. I have some family history sites to visit during the trip which I am really looking forward to.
Will post some more on our Tasmanian holiday on our return.
For now, from Australia its goodnight xx
