Monday 13th October

Time is flying by now and I can't believe the amount of people wishing us well with our new life, many people that don't really know that well. The whole family are excited and can't wait to get on that plane for what some would a holiday of a lifetime ...... but this will be my 5th visit to Bali and the 3rd for the kids.

There are always people who try to throw a spanner into other peoples lives one for instance my dads wife. Me and my dad don't have anything to do with each other, and never will for reasons that I won't go into here. We have not had any contact since I phoned to tell him he had a grandson nearly 15 years ago. Since then I have heard he is dying from this then that and everything is hereditary a dig at me I think to be honest how could the first son abandon the father?????.

Then last night I get a message on facebook from his wife telling me that I had better make sure I have good health insurance because I am likely to need it as everything he has I am likely to get too. shame that's the only contact in 15 years. To be honest and I hope they read this or at least get told about this .....they can go FUCK OFF with their small insignificant lives.


On to Nicer thing we we to the Eden Project on Sunday, what a place everyone should visit at least once in there lives. The weather was more like a July day not an October day.


I got some great photos. I must admit at the moment I have had loads of time to concentrate on the things
I enjoy which is great I have even spent money on a new camera lens so I can take some surfing shots in Bali.

Another thing I have have done is made a film, wonders amaze me where all this imagination is coming from maybe its a mid life change of direction ha ha.

For the film I strapped my video camera to the bull bar of my 4x4 and drove around all the old haunts in Saltash. I took about an hour to drive to all the locations and then I edited the video. I speeded it up by about six times and added some appropriate music too take a look you might enjoy it if you don't thanks for looking.

Well I will sign off now maybe I will get another blog in before we fly if I have time between all photography and video :)

Sunday 5th October

So quite a lot has happened since my last post. We have now moved out of the house and are living with the in-laws. Its not the easiest thing to be doing if I am honest but then its only for 3 weeks. Yes in just over 3 weeks we will be on our way to a new life. I managed to get a fantastic deal with a company called Affordable Holidays, under £5k for 6 of us with a month in Bali on the way. I just can't wait.

I travel to London tomorrow to go to the Australian High Commission to get the visa's into the passports. I am glad to have something to do as it feels like I am just waiting for the days to pass and that gets so boring, but that will consist of 14 hours on a bus.

Found out last night that my ex the one that has made our lives hell dragging us through court just to say OK at the end, has a brand new car I bet the legal aid people will be interested in that time to report her me thinks that will wipe the smile off her face its people like her that have dragged this country into the ground, and tax payers like you and me are paying for that. If anyone has a suggestions on this matter let me me know
