Yep, I've finally moved away from Germany. It was a really stressful time getting everything ready before moving and now I've got the same to look forward to now I'm back in England... sigh! It was very emotional leaving Germany that's for sure. I'm in a hotel at the moment and start my new job tomorrow. So far all the people I've met have been ( Read more... )

My new place of work is the Defence College of Aeronautical Engineering at Cosford. That is roughly midway between Wolverhampton and Telford in the West Midlands (north west of Birmingham). Thank you for the well wishes. I'm still staying in a hotel and looking for somewhere to live.... hope I find somewhere soon! *hugs* back

That sounds so cool! And you're not too far from London (I Google Mapped it and then zoomed out until I could see them both, haha). Hope you find a place to live soon!

I'll come over and make a cup of tea!

I think London is around 150 miles away which is quite far for England hehe ;) The nearest 'BIG' city is Birmingham which is the second largest city in England (UK?) and has more canals than Venice! Manchester isn't too far away either. When I get settled I'm going to look forward to travelling more into Wales especially since that's where my Mum originates from.

Yeah, you must come and make a cup of tea :) We can go for a picnic too :)

Hello! I had to move because my NATO job was a 4 year contract and that finished. I'm officially a Ministry of Defence civil servant and that is what I've returned to (I was sort of seconded/interchanged with NATO).

It's strange being back. It's nice being among English speakers but it isn't no where as nice as Germany and it's more expensive too.

I'm staying in a hotel at the moment but I'm looking for rented accommodation, without much luck at the moment.

Take care, Jxx
