St. George's Day

Photobucket


Are you proud to be an English Man or in my case a Woman? That's if you are an english person of course! Do you think of St. Georges Day as a special day? For me it evokes the images of Knights and Dragons and Medieval Feasts. Would I have been happy to live in Medieval Times – I can never decide ... a lady living in a castle and spending my day working on a tapestry or crewel embroidery, or would I prefer to be a peasant and working the fields and tending the livestock and perhaps using my drop spindle ...

If I am honest a bit of both, and as nobody can take my dreams away, I can mix it all up and live the life I would deep down quite like to live now.

Whatever your thoughts and dreams are about this man / saint / day / celebration, have a great St. George's Day, where ever you are.

I have so much to share with you, so why is that when I have lots to blog, I have no extra time to write it all ... there most be a Chinese saying for this scenario. However I will upload all my photographs and get myself and you all up to date with what has been happening, very soon.

But at the moment I will leave you with my fidgety feeling. It is Noel's last day at work today; he has booked Brize Nortons' Fire Department's bar and bar-be-que area and will be saying his farewells to all his team, work colleagues and friends from the last four years. I am going to pick him up much later this evening to bring him home as I am positive he will be quite wobbly and very unfit to drive. He then has a couple of days off work before starting his new job on Monday. I am very excited about his new job, for a start he has only a very short distance to travel, a distance that he can cycle, saving him quite a lot of petrol and car running costs, with the added advantage of less travelling time, but more importantly it will be great for the environment. It is also a very big step up the ladder ... so I am so proud I could shout about it to everyone I meet (I don't of course) but this is surely the next best thing ... however I am left with this fidgety feeling, I am hoping it is because it means a lot of positive changes to our lives, he will be home so much more, something that I am really looking forward to... however there is this little tiny nag at the back of my head that says 'good things never last', it is such a shame to think like this, because since I married Noel my life has got so much better than any of my expectations.
