Things I miss about England:

(not in any particular order)

1. qwerty keyboards
2. Philadelphia cheese spread
3. chocloate hobnobs
4. SQUASH
5. 'normal' bread
6. Nightclubs
7. Current Music
8. SHOPS in particular useful shops like: LUSH, Boots, M&S, Primark, Dorothy Perkins.
9. My friends
10. My family

Things that I'm enjoying out here

1. 35-40 degree heat daily (although working in this heat is not enjoyable)
2. Swimmingpool on site
3. Lots of amazing sight-seeing opportunities in and around Provence
4. Proximity to sea (warm mediterannean sea not crappy east english coast)
5. 4 hr lunch breaks
6. I now eat nutella, after 21 years of rejection.
7. crepes and croissants (not eaten together)
8. suntan
9. went to paris to see friends and family on my days off a couple of weeks ago
10. french tv, shockingly bad, but kind of scarily addictive.

I'm sure theres lods of other things, and don't get me wrong, there's downsides to both sides, and I'll miss the heat and the pool and the frenchy things, and the people.... but hey - only 41 working days left/8 weeks


Random blog I know, not working on anything particularly witty, but there you go, just my thoughts and feelings at the moment, thought I'd note them down.

Ciao for now
