BA049 here I come!

Good news is my relocation plan has finally been approved.. but now arguments are ensuing over who pays for it. It costs about $20k to move me from the UK to the USA, various things have to be covered around Visa legal processes and moving things about, taxes and what not, so somebody has to stump up from their budgets.. Assuming somebody does in the near future then I have a strong feeling this blog is going to turn into a "what it's really like to move from the UK to the USA" style diary.. no doubt there'll be a mire of buerocracy for me to froth over and whinge about... there's bound to be something terribly wrong with the whole process!

It's a good job too because worryingly this time back I've found nothing appealing about the UK whatsoever. Small country villages have done nothing for me.. Englands gently rolling pastoral landscapes are a damp squib to the senses after the glorious vista's of Washingtons snow capped mountains, deep pine forests and sparkling lakes. Even the rain is all wrong. So far since I've been back I've had to endure completely useless customer service (queue of at least 40 people at the cinema on Tuesday, being served by ONE small confused looking girl), on the whole the weather has been dreadful, and the office I've had to work in has been shockingly loud and disruptive.

So, on the 28th of April I get to return to the USA, at least that's when the flight is being arranged for! I could be there for two weeks.. or that could be it.. who knows!?
