Another goodbye...

Everyday we are starting to say goodbye to our friends in the UK, this is us with Anna and Tim. Anna is Ellie's Godmother and now they have their own bundle of trouble coming in March 06 - what better news to leave with! Congratulations to them, what great parents they will be.

I do at least have a "document" signed by both of them committing to come to Canada to visit!

It's not easy on nights like tonight, but none of us blubbed, but that's because we'll see them again possibly b4 we go. Tim manfully worked his way through a whole bottle wine by himself (which is a requrement at the moment for all visting friends as the export taxes are absurd). Anna has obviously resorted to extreme measures to avoid the current (enforced) "getting it down" regulations and has chosen to spend £300k over the next 18 years (source BBC Online) - an extreme policy, well, I love her anyway.


Tim also helped with a couple of glasses of Polish Vodka - I managed to slip the bottle into her bag before they left!


Hohum.
