It is my last day at work today before I leave to pack and go to Australia to be with my soul mate on the 10th of November.

Wow, I’m so excited it’s unreal. However, right now I am also extremely pissed so I thought it would be funny to take the opportunity of writing a post while my boss is in a meeting with a client.

Bless Alan, he can be a git sometimes but he can also be really nice. He has just taken me and Michelle and also our temp, Lucy, out for a fantastic meal at Flynn’s in Montpellier for lunch. Diana couldn’t make it unfortunately, as her broken wrist is still causing her much pain. But I decided as it was my last day that I would drink some vodka!

Now my intention was not to get totally sloshed beyond hope of driving myself home but just faintly tipsy so I felt nice and relaxed and could say I once got pissed at an office thingamy wotsit. You see, I don’t normally drink at all cos I hate the stuff but since going to Kazakhstan back in June/July to see my friends Chris and Irina, Chris introduced me to vodka. (more…)

I’ve done it again haven’t I? It’s been virtually a month since my last post and so much has happened I don’t know where to start.

Basically, after my first date with Mat we spent every day, bar two, together until his departure for Australia on 3rd September. I went with him to the airport and I don’t mind saying I shed more than a few tears as we shared our last embrace and I then had to watch him disappear out of sight. It was at this point that I truely realised how naive I had been to think I could maintain my facade to myself that our relationship was ‘just a bit of fun’. I don’t know about ‘love at first sight’ but in this case it was most definitely ‘love in ten days’ for me.

Needless to say, after telling myself in the preceeding week that there was no way I was going to Australia, I had my flight booked by the end of the week. Three weeks in November would be a long enough holiday to see if we were still as mad about each other as we thought we were and then I could seriously consider the prospect of moving out there with him in the Spring, or that was my thinking anyway.
