Thanks for your advice, Moose; September is when we normally take our Summer
holidays.
This year is going to be a bit up in the air, with my changing jobs/retiring
from the RAF. I'm thinking of striking out and doing something completely
different, perhaps in coaching and mentoring; but Julia needs a bit more
reassurance that I'm not being merely fanciful.
So, perhaps in 2015 . . .
I was probably being a bit fussy; I can take twee if there's a good mix of
rugged and real in the landscape :-)
