Farewells
By 'eck, I'm having a G&T. It's been a busy week.
The extrovert part of me's been on a roll and I'm not flagging yet. Which is a surprise. Usually need a bit of ebb to keep up the flow but it's all flow at the mo and I'm feeling alright. Woooo.
Just been out to say fare thee well to fellow team-mate, Elizabeth, who's bound for Melbourne on Saturday, back to her husband, Michael, and to mine all the research she's been doing here for her PhD. And farewells too to Mim from World Horizons who flies back to Wales via a Singapore sojourn on Saturday.
So glad to have a very practical Mum whose words always ring in my ears when it comes to cheerios: "You have to say goodbye to say hello again". Which is what it felt like tonight. The parting of the way with fellow nomads who, at some point, some place, I'll see again and we'll simply carry on the conversation where we left it.
Would love to add a picture now but I forgot to take one. So here's to Elizabeth and Mim and here's the G&T I've just raised in their honour:
