Pilgrim Soldier

Well the Latvia adventure is nearly over! In less than a week our stuff will be taken away by the removal company and we will be staying at Sarah’s for 3 nights. Which means in 9 days from now we will be on a plane flying back to England!

Friday was a strange day! We said goodbye to Evie of course and I basically finished up the last but one job that I have to do. Now all I have to do is finalise my ‘brief’ and meet with the Regional Commanders and I will be done here.

We are not the only English people leaving the country. The British Ambassador is also leaving and when I opened my e-mail on Friday I discovered an invite for Zoe & I to go to their residence for a dinner on Wednesday. Our Ambassador and his wife are really nice people, who we have had the privilege of meeting a number of times. They have also been very supportive since finding out about Patverums, so it will be nice to spend some time with them before we leave, even though we will be only 2 amongst quite a number of people.

So our 5 years, 10 months and 13 days are almost over and we’ll have so many memories, and of course will be taking two beautiful girls back to England with us! Not sure how much I’ll get to blog before we leave but I have a few things in the pipeline!
