A diary of minor adventures

This is a jog through things we have done while in the UK. It is for friends and family who may give a damn about what we get up to.

The Wetherby adventure ends.

It is not a surprise that after 9 years in the UK the blog entries got somewhat over run with life events. It is now the beginning of 2016 and guilt has hit this lazy blogger to make the decision.
Oh no, that's too melodramatic.
Truth is, we have been back to Australia , organised our arty stuff to come to the UK, arrived home and sold our Wetherby house and have bought a place further North, closer to our loved  Yorkshire Dales National Park.  In the smaller market town of Bedale.  Hibernian House used to be an old B&B .
All that sounds quite straight forward but let me remind myself how fraught every step was in that process.

In time I will probably have the time to start a Bedale Adventures blog but for the moment we are looking at a raft of negotiations for trades, fittings and property renovation time.
Gail has also left her job at Alliance Medical and taken on the same job with INHealth a competitor medical services company that has more jobs up North East.  I am, for the moment staying on at the Wetherby transport role as I am thinking there may be some opportunity there as Leeds Council wants to roll out the scheme I authored to other Neighbourhood network organisations.  I am proprietorial enough to want that to go well.

The new place in Bedale will take some fixing and photos and pride will form the first of my posts from there.  We will have 3 spare rooms for guests so expect to hear from friends who want to find out why we moved.

My guilt is not sufficient to say much more at this time.  I will in time link this Blog to the one I start for Bedale.  I am thinking though, blogging is so last decade.  By the time we get Bedale done there may be brain implants that allow us all to communicate without voice recognition , swiping, and thumb typing.  Technology moves so fast I'll promise to be always one trend behind.

Hope you have enjoyed the Wetherby Adventures and the adventures we have had since we have been here.  I look back over these pages and , ignoring the pretentiousness, am pleased I captured the bits I did.    Can't wait for the next ten years, can't imagine what they will hold.
