Back to Blighty - Part 1
Due to the visa restrictions on The Mrs (and I don’t think I ever wrote about that in detail - so the basics are that because US law doesn’t recognise our marriage, he can’t have the kind of visa that a wife of mine could. Don’t get me started on this one - I could rant all day on the subject. Anyway…) he was only given permission to stay in the country for six months, then has to leave and re-enter. So on Saturday I saw him off on a plane back to London, where he’s going to spend a couple of weeks catching up with people. I’m going to leave to join him this coming Friday, as based on his last experience coming into the US six months ago, we’ve decided that whenever he needs to come back in I’ll travel with him.
So for this week, the cat and I are left to our own devices, which if today was anything to go by, aren’t very interesting. No, to be fair, the weather wasn’t great, and a domestic day planning for the trip was quite sensible, but it’s odd being in this house without company. Even though a lot of our ‘in company’ time involves us sitting in front of our computers, at least we’re doing it together :-)
