I've been drawn in.....


Granty

I've succumbed.... After thinking, nah, I won't do this blog thing, who would seriously want to know about the mundane-ities of my daily ramblings, and who I am I to think that casting a few of my thoughts into the cyber void will attract any interest at all, ...I found myself being drawn in......

Its compulsive innit?! So here goes....blog part 1!

Erm...well this is how most Mondays are - sat at work bleary eyed after a hellish drive to work from Worthing to High Wycombe via the M25, shakily looking around for coffee and biscuits. Life over the past couple of years has been conducted mostly on motorways since I finished a long term relationship, left my job where I could walk to work for a job in High Wycombe, yet stayed living in Witney commuting 70 miles a day (doh!), and then found a girlfriend in Worthing (doh doh!!). Travelling from Oxfordshire to West Sussex a couple of times a week forces one to appreciate the wonders of the South East motorway network....the first wonder being that anyone manages to get anywhere at all... However, it does mean that the inevitable traffic driving down to certain festies in the West Country can't possibly be as bad as the M25 at 5pm on a Friday....

But yeah she's worth it ;) !!

**Self Conscious Efests Public Service Announcement!!**

It should be pointed out that said girlfriend is an efester by the name of Stripey Socks. Yes we met at Glastonbury. Yes we met because of efests. Awwwww bless etc etc...

**End of Self Conscious Efests Public Service Announcement**

Glad we got that cleared up. On with the blog...

So is there a purpose to this blurb you ask?! Well, simply to say that life seems to be looking very very much rosier at the moment.....cos in a few weeks time Im moving to Cornwall......to another new (better) job.....and Im takin Stripey and the nipper with me....and they have festivals and cider and pasties and clotted cream down that way.....! And we just have this sense of (as Hannibal from the A-Team would put it) the plan finally coming together... ;)

So watch this space for perilous tales of how not to relocate two lives plus a 7 year old's entire world several hundred miles to 5co77ie's backyard gawd 'elp us! Or possibly for ramblings about complete trivia and the odd festival. Enjoy?!?!

Here endeth the first lesson. Ithangyou.....

Wow.....i must have been hiding under a rock granty, didnt know any of that....i'm really happy for you......i hope things are going smoothly for you......although we didnt have to move 100's of miles to relocate, we still had to bring together two different lives, one that included a 7 (now 8) year old life!!!

i am very jealous with the relocation thing (reading you other blog as well)......to up sticks and move to that part of the country, near the sea, in a cottage would be great (dont tell bus that though, i tell him southern people are strange!!!)

looking forward to saying hi at BD's to all three of you :(

wow again....it looks like you future is definetly going to be rosey :)

Aww thanks hipster! Don't think it would have been difficult to miss the news - we haven't exactly been shouting it from the rooftops! But definitely looking forward to seeing you and bus at BD and discussing life, relocations and hoping the Elster and Seb can keep each other occupied for a while allowing the grown ups to drink in peace! :(
