Not long to go now!! It is so scary, after spending nearly thirty years as the wife of a UK soldier the time is looming when we have to leave. I will be so sorry to go, it has been an incredible journey, so many friends made, postings enjoyed and within that time we have been blessed with two amazing daughters who have always shown us nothing but love and respect, we love them both more than words could ever express x
Youngest daughter Stephie is married to John and they have been happily married for nearly a year (27th October 2012) and Tilly is marrying Dan in less that five weeks (27th July 2013). Both the boys are lovely, we are so very lucky that our girls have found good men to spend the rest of their lives with.
Our journey began in our first little home together in Balham, London. London is great whilst you’re young but I wouldn’t want to live there now. We had two more postings there but I tell you about them later. After Balham it went like this: Caterham UK (we lived in Kenley) Nathalie was born here, then Hong Kong (Stanley Fort) Stephanie was conceived here (so she should have made in Hong Kong stamped somewhere on her bum), then Pirbright UK (Stephanie born here) then Cyprus (Belangaria) then London UK (Chelsea Barracks) then Germany (Munster, Bentheimweg) then Sandhurst UK (Fort Narrion) then Germany (Munster, Gronauweg) then Sandhurst UK, (Range Ride) then Germany, again (Munster, Muckermannweg) then London UK, London for the last time (Putney, West Side Road) then Brunei (Kuala Belait) then Nottingham UK (Northfield Crescent) then Nepal (Jaulakhel, they don’t have street names in Nepal) and here we are in our very last quarter in Catterick Garrison UK (Rawlinson Road) phew, what a journey and a lot of packing boxes that has been!! I wish I had photos of all of the places we have lived but no, I never have been very good at organising photos but hopefully that will change when we live in our forever home – wherever that might be???
