Busy busy busy!!

From super snowfalls came some slightly warmer weather (still under 0 degrees!)

We met up with some friends at the weekend to have a few beers and a curry in Basingstoke. It was lovely to see everybody and catch us with gossip…..but it was a stark reminder of a Saturday night in Basingstoke… never an enjoyable sight when it starts to get late.

After the weekend, most of the snow had melted.This gave me a chance to remove 20,000 DVDs from my premises to ship out to another warehouse as the client has moved on to pastures greener (he thinks…) and was just using us as storage..

Here they are finally packed up and ready to go.

Next up for the cleaning treatment, was the dvd print area… A few hours of washing surfaces, putting things away, and hoovering made me a lot happier…

Now just the rest of the office to do….

Meanwhile, in Koh Tao…. yesterday they had a return of the Monsoon in a big way.. Major rainfall in 1 hour caused this…

Maybe I should stop moaning about the weather? NAH!!

Off the plane at 5am, and back to Jen’s sisters house.

Jesus, its cold here. -2c on arrival, and it has not increased. Snow is still forecast… We are still in a state of shock (or frozen?)..

First on the agenda was doctors appointments. Then collect our car (ka!). Thanks to Martyn for purchasing ahead of our arrival. The only thing that doesn’t work is the damm heater!!! Typical!!

After visit to the docs, and booking an ENT appointment for 6th Jan, we sorted out insurance on the car.

A quick visit to the office, to say Hi, and back to the farm, where I decided to fall asleep on the sofa.. Could not keep my eyes open. Eventually, both of us were in bed by 8pm.

Up for a couple of hours at 3am (jet lag) I got back to sleep, and we both woke up bright and early…
