Nora, I'm so jealous! That sounds awesome! I get to do that family angst without the benefit of the UK. *pout*

Heh. That was on the "pro" list of going over: "will deal with family (my family) bullshit regardless"

Lucky you, Nora! I have a friend currently living in England and I'd give anything to be able to visit. Alas, funding is slim. Maybe in a few years.

Those links didn't work at all.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Have coffee and am watching Iconoclast with Paul Newman and Robert Redford. Happy.

Second attempt:
I need some fashion advice. I recently bought this skirt, and I need a top to go with it. Any suggestions? This is a detailed view of the pattern.

Because books.
sj, the Yahoo site is claiming there's an error.
Yay, Nora! What a great trip to look forward to.

Yeah, the flight cost is pretty discouraging, then add the hotel in... (we'll be staying at a hotel in London, but not the 2 nights at his mom's). Eek! But, at this point, with the state of his mom's health, it's not much of an option... and the ROI of her not being alone on Xmas is pretty enormous.
We'll spin the numbers somehow.
I've booked the flight, and the hotel near Heathrow for the night before we fly home. Waiting on hearing from Tom's dad before we book in his neighborhood. Will hopefully find someplace nice in Edinburgh for not too much for some non-parent downtime in between London and St. Andrews. Or suck it up and stay with MIL an extra night. See what the numbers say... Hey, maybe one of us will get a huge raise before the end of the year!!!
I'm psyched to be in London at Christmas though- just like in Dr. Who! hopefully there will be no alien invasion though.
