A BIG surprise.....

Yes, I know this is my third 'last entry' for a while....

But.......

JAMES IS HOME !!

He just walked through the door yesterday evening.  I couldnt believe my eyes, I just dropped the t towel and burst into tears.  And then I shouted at him ofcourse !  What on EARTH is he doing back here when he should be having a fabulous time in Oz still?  And thats why he didnt tell me he was coming home, because he knew I would try and talk him out of it.  He said he just couldnt stand being so far away with everything that was going on and he just wanted to be here with the family.  I burst into tears again.

He managed to suspend his working visa so he can return to Oz at any time and use the rest of it, change the date on his return ticket, and had been travelling since Thursday evening.  He even got a mate to pick him up from the airport so he could really surprise us.  And he sure did !

What a lovely boost that was - he looks SO well, all tanned and healthy.

Ofcourse, hes also brought back 2 enormous bags of washing - but Im ignoring those !

Ah!  Mothers the world over are rotten like that.  Always shouting at their off-spring for something or another.

So Glad he's home, though, Jane.  Continuing to think of you of all.
