Hmm, I think I'm looking forward to going home. Not that Al's parents' are ever less than 100% accommodating, but I have to say I'm missing having the space at home. It doesn't help that my horrendous couple of weeks of hayfever (the annual culmination of it where I end up wheezing like an emphysemic old man and having to pause halfway up stairs to get my breath) had been turned into a month long extravaganza. Whatever the pollen is I'm allergic to, it had just passed in Hitchin; out west it seems to come out later, and I've been thrown straight back into it.
Anyway, I have sat my exam (went ok I think, difficult to tell though) and now just have to stumble through a couple more days of mock trials and then 4 days of electives next week. Thankfully, we're going home this weekend for a couple of days, which will be good.
The kids are loving it here though; Jess is in his element. Playing with the dogs, running round the garden, and pestering Al's dad - he'd probably be happy staying for good. Ah well, soon enough we'll be back out this way.
