For those following at home, I'm now back in the land down under.
I had a very busy week last week sending boxes, dispersing my possessions and cleaning my apartment, the latter with significant help from Em. There were also a number of farewells, each time promising to see people again, knowing that it may only be true in half the cases. On Thursday I handed back the keys to my apartment and jumped on a train to the airport. From there it was off to Dubai, and then after a delay on to Singapore and then Brisbane, arriving on Saturday morning.
On arrival I was met by Lee and Mick at the airport, and we headed into town for breakfast and coffee with Paul, Julz, Celia and Andy. In the afternoon we headed up to Toowoomba and the family seat.
Tales from green corner of a wide brown land.

Ah, could you feel the love? I couldn't feel it because I was in Perth, a city that make Brisbane look vibrant and interesting. Which is saying something.
Wow- can't believe you're back in Oz after all these years... hope your enjoying it and not suffering from reverse culture shock...
Been a good re-entry so far. Coming back in winter has eased the climate thing, and I've been eating really well. The novelty of being unemployed has also kept me distracted maybe :)
Best wishes for the re-integration. I like the new blog title.
I'd have preferred you to stay a while in this part of the world, it was great visiting you, but I just got the timing wrong.
