Hi
We arrived back home safely. I haven't been too well on the gastric front for most of the week. despite this we had a lovely evening with the Thompsons on Tues and I had a great evening with Heather, Ruth and Helen at the Bay tree on Thursday night.
Friday was rushed, trying to sort out everything for a month before leaving for Cork. Homer developed diarrhoea on Eed evening so we had a trip to the vet!
Anyway all the pooches were taken to kennels friday afternoon and we left for Dublin and arrived very speedily 2 hours later at the Crowne Plaza hotel near the airport.
On Saturday we left at 10am and arrived at Middleton 3 hours later. The new motorway makes a big difference.
We went to Middletyon evangelical Church this morning. It meets in a hotel. The Pastor; Andy is english, and was preaching on Amos 3-4.
The weather was very wet this morning. However we managed a rather blustery walk along the beach at Garryvoe this afternoon.
We have had a lot of trouble with getting online. There is wifi in the cottage but despite connecting, we cannot get the internet up. Tim has an O2 mobile braodband thing! We are now ion the conservatory at the hotel making use of the wifi there - it works! So I am hoping to spend time uploading photos of NZ and Kabul to snapfish to make a couple of photo albums.
Hopefully going into Cork tomorrow afternoon and visit the English Market!

Bumps, bruises and bugs
Hi
I am writing this at Heathrow airport, we landed from Dubai at 2.30 and our flight to Belfast is 8pm! A very nice lady has just given me a mini facial with some amazing beuaty products (no parabens, silicone etc...) The very helpful pharmacist has set me up with dioralyte (to reyhdrate me) and motilium. I haven't been very well since thursday night (vomiting) and still feel quite rough.
I also fell down a marble staircase on Thursday and have really bruised my leg.
The journey back so far has been uneventful.
The photos belwo are of Herat: The citadel, friendsds in Herat, a chadori (??) shop- the blue veils that the ladies wear otherwise known as a burkha, Chicken St Kabul.....
The guys who run the scarf shop!
