    Thanks Adz, and I'm proud of you for keeping smoke free it is a big achievement - wish I could be as strong as you!

    I'm feeling very tired and aching all over to be honest, not sure if the change in the weather helps - got quite a bit colder!

    Hey, tell me what happened about the German thing?? Oh, can't remember what you call it ... ?

    I hope you decide to do it because if you don't you will regret it Adz - are your parents supportive in this? I know with an exchange a lot .. wel a great deal depends on whether your parents agree to it.

    Well it is a lot of money Adz, but if they're ok with the exchange what exactly is holding you back??

    The idea of spending all day on a train and plane by myself. With only me and my MP3 player, I'll drive myself mad.
