You may be wondering if we fell off the edge of the planet but the truth is we've been computer-less for a long while. Finally we have a new laptop just so we can compose some more blogs for you. Well, ok there are other reasons we bought a computer. Anyway, now we have 2 months of our "holiday of a life time" to show. In order that we don't become complete computer geck recluses, writing blogs in all our spare time, we're going to stagger the blogs so don't worry, you won't get 10 pages to read all at once.
To fill you in with our current status, we are happily living and working in Kilmarnock, Ayrshire, Scotland (30 mins South West of Glasgow). Greg has got a little more hairy (see picture for progress). We're welcoming comments since he wants to decide how long to keep the beard.
We've been extremely lucky with accommodation. One of our work collegues has an apartment built above her house. We're thoroughly spoilt with broadband internet, Sky TV with surround sound and a lovely family living quietly below us (we hope we return the favour!).

We have a spare bedroom if anyone wants to come and visit!! Hopefully the jobs will last and we can stay here for a few months. We'll be here at least until the end of January.
We also decided to swap for car No 3.... its absolute heaven in comparison to any car we've owned and we love zippy little "Wizz Fizz" (see number plate for how we named her). The previous car (the Beast) was on its last legs with numerous issues all coming on us at once and also consumed vast amounts of petrol (double Wizz Fizz - greedy Beast!). Wizz Fizz is a Volkswagon Polo, 2 Door.

Would you believe we fitted all our belongings into the back?!! Thanks to good friends, Bron and Jerome, who put us up for a week while we bought the car and enjoyed cooking our own meals again (no more hotel breakfasts!).
