One year on...

Hello to you all!
It is hard to believe that Lindsay and I have been in Canada now for just over one year. It has been a very busy year - finding new jobs, a place to live, settling into a 'Canadian' lifestyle. We've had are fair share of ups and downs that come with any big life move - but we have survived (even if just barely). I'll give you a brief update of the last 12 months - we are now home owners - a fantastic two bedroom condo in downtown Calgary (and on a good day we even have a view of the mountians from our balcony!), both of us are taking a break from teaching - I'm still in education as a Director of Education for Sylvan Learning and Lindsay is working in Human Resources doing a fair bit of training for a staff at a posh office design store. We have still managed a little adventure with the Rockies at our doorstep - we've been camping, mountain biking (nothing like the widing roads of England), golfing and spending time with family.
We've tried to keep in touch with friends and family, but with time change and life - well it does make it rather difficult. We do think of everyone often and miss you very much. I'm hoping to keep this blog a regular part of life - keeping the rest of you in touch what we are getting up to over here in Canada! So enjoy the funny tales and photos of course!
Take care
