Greetings from Sydney

Here we are on the otherside of the world after a long 24 hours up in the air.
Its winter its warm and we have even seen snow, in Sydney.
Undertaken the central Sydney experience and now have started to venture further afield to the beaches of Bondi and Cronulla.
Have been taking lots of pictures which will be uploaded anon.

Excitement Finally

Well today is my last day of work before my long hols. However, am studying at home so no driving.... that certainly knackered me out the last two days. In fact I barely crawled up the stairs yesterday and into bed. Spending the day in doing a draft paper for publication.

Have not even begun to think of packing yet. Got to sort out my suitcase of medicine first.... lol Viral Polyarthrities and severe Vit D deficiency plus other vitamin lacks and being ill from 2 and half years mean a long slow road to recovery.

I think I can begun to get excited tomorrow after my Vit B12 injection. It is supposed to be around 20 C so not too bad... hope I can catch some sun as well. This will be my first holiday in 18 months - need it badly to relax. I guess a few t-shirts and trousers will suffice and maybe something to wear out to dinner just in case I get taken out....Also maybe be a jacket and fleece just in case... as the mountains do get colder than 20C. Going to get a lift to Cockfosters so that the tube can take us right to Heathrow. The the long arduous flight... I am sure I will have to suffer and try to keep moving about every so often to avoid aches and pains.

Well I shall go back to finishing my paper.......

Been Lazy

Its a long time since I came here. There has been so much happening as I finally started going to work again after a long haul illness. Still not right but felt I must come here and write a note. I am going on holiday next week. This is a nice month long break in Australia and will be visiting Sydney and Melbourne and places in between. I will try and put in a daily blog and pics if I can. If not it will all come in when I return home. Hope the weather is fine and sunny. I know it is winter but am sure better compared to the English summer!!! Anyway we hope the summer is still in UK when we get back.
