2 days and counting!

Final photo before we all go our seperate ways.  The freezer, fridge and cupboards have been raided.  Just heading out for final fairwell lunch in town.  As the famous Tajikistan poet Rumi says: 'I have five things to say but i can't remember any of them!  It's called bewilderment' (or dementia, depending on your age).

Please note: Moses can't be with us as he's working so we've pasted him into the picture (Moses, hope you don't mind).

Christmas in November

Four days before we head off to Dushanbe and we are having the girls and boy round for Christmas dinner -turkey and all the trimmings!  Bags are slowly getting packed and we can't wait to be on our way.  All feels a bit surreal at the moment (as does this whole blogging thing!) and we have that wierd 'we know something big is about to happen' feeling in our tummies. 

The next chapter is an exciting one!
