ABout the weather and what to pack.. I'd definitely bring a coat and several sweaters/jumpers. I had to buy a cardigan and a coat (well, heavy jacket) this summer! One thing about the temps- they can be deceiving since it's soooooooo windy here. The temp may be upper 60s/70s, but with the wind it feels much colder! And I'm in the south of England! Who knows what it will be like in Scotland this weekend! I've been told it's even windier. Eeps. Don't forget, though, you can always buy something if you need it here. There are plenty of reasonably priced shops (and cute stuff!) You won't need 4 pairs of shoes either, probably. You'll find you tend to wear the same ones. I have a pair I brought that I've only worn once. (Waste of space! Grr!) You will have a great time no matter what you bring I'm sure!!
Anyway, EQ- good news on the horse. Hope it works out!
Not much going on here.. just enjoying my last week of being here in England before I have to leave next Friday. I'm trying not to focus on that bit and just enjoy it all. But, I definitely do NOT want to go back to work- especially since we just found out not only are we not getting our normal cost of living raise (like 1.5%) this year, we are getting a pay reduction in the form of forced unpaid days off. And it looks like we won't be able to choose them either! Such a crock. Definitely will be hitting the streets for a part time job when I get home. Bleh. (Though I know it could be worse, but less pay doesn't really help the whole "saving a bajillion pounds for a tier 1 visa and having the right salary level, etc" plan, especially now the pound is stronger.)
Well, I'm gonna get a move on. I think I will go to the British Library today.
Hope everyone's moving/visiting/wedding plans are going well!!
