Landed safely on Tuesday 28th ... not such bad flights after all that ... in fact I was very good during the whole packing cases(no screaming, ranting, or raving), getting to the airport (we were ready & packed when Juno rocked up) getting on the flight, no hassles at the airport...would've liked an upgrade but way too much!!! (damn these pills are good!!!LOL)
The flight DBN to Dubai was full and initially I thought great... a couple of student groups were on the flight = no sleep at all ... they all settled down and we all got a couple of hours shut-eye... Dubai airport was pumping ... at 5am !!! it was 31'c ... I had way tooooo many clothes on .... and of course we landed at 1 side of the airport and had to walk to the other side ...mmmm now I know why I wanted hand luggage with wheels ... gotta get me some of that !!!
Then it was Dubai to Birmingham ... 61/2 hours and it felt like all the kept doing was shoving food in our faces LOL and before you knew it we were landing ... and guess what I was soooo grateful for all the clothes I had on (W.T.F ... here I am now wishing I had only brought my LONG jeans, my fluffy boots and LONG SLEEVED shirts ...oh oh guess I'll have to go out and buy me some new clothes .. oooh aaah !!! Mmm I really need some new jeans ... to go with the 3 prs of new jeans I bought in SA just before I left !!!!)
Paul was the ever romantic hubby waiting patiently with flowers for his wife and a W.T.F is that for his son LOL ... Kelsey with his new hair colour and he's much taller than his dad now LOL !!!
Oooops I fell asleep on the trip home ... 'no I didn't' I gave the boys some alone time LOL !!! Then of course Kelsey had to go out for a drive in dads '2nd' car a Toyota Celica !!! Little sporty jobby !!! so I just lay myself down for 40 winks hahaha!!! Age is catching up to me LOL
Paul woke me to go out to dinner ... carvery at DeRhodes ... saved me thinking about food ... mind you was in no shape to do any cooking LOL ... and for me it was home and straight to bed ...
Woke up yesterday a new woman !!!
Can't get over the fact that everything seems to start later here... I was awake at my usual 6am and there was no-one about, so I turned over and went back to sleep !!! the boys were crashed out ... only surfaced after 8am !!!
Kelsey & Paul were off out to work .. and I have the big Sante Fe' as my 'run around' ... now this is the style in which I am accustomed LOL ... 1st choice for the day ... clothes ... I am soooo glad I brought 1 pair of jeans and my denim jacket ... they are soo my best friends right now !!! Of course I have packed totally the wrong things !!! One forgets just how blerdy cold the summers are in UK LOL !!!
so what did I do on my first day here .....
SHOPPING .... at TESCOS of all places ... started at the books, worked my way round to the clothes and ended at the food ... after 3 hours Paul phoned and spoilt my fun !!! wanted me to join them for LUNCH !!! (oh and I have to mention that was at the small Tesco's in Clowne ... imagine what I'm gonna be like when I get to the big one in Chesvegus !!! PMSL )
After lunch it was home ... ooh and aah over my purchases ... the boys went off to gym ... I lazed on the bed and read a couple of chapters and when they got back it was "Lets go to the movies Transformers 3 is on" and so it was ....
Home after pics ... not eaten anything solid for 4 hours !!! boys had Tuna, I had a crappy pot noodle and crashed into bed !!! Was blerdy knackered LOL
And so onto day 2 ... 1st decision ... what to wear ... it's blerdy cold outside ... and starting to look a bit overcast !!! Oh shit it's raining !!! really wish I'd brought those damned fluffy boots !!!
