So I ended up having a great time in my flying visit to Cambridge. I met up with Tim and Gus from work along with Charley, a great girl I know from
Manager League. We did a tour of a few pubs and eventually gave my phone an alarming look as I realised we had to rush back to the station so I could get the last train back to the flat. They are all very nice people and I would recommend meeting them yourself. Also, my apologies for not letting friends know I was secretly in Cambridge, I was there for just 6 hours, barely long enough for a pint with the three I was meeting already. :-)
Then I was staying in the Ibis in Stevenage for the night last Tuesday. I had a meeting for work down at Axis House on Bath Road just outside Heathrow Airport. In the evening I got the train over to Hitchin to see Stuart. It was great to be back and made me realise just how much I miss the independance of living alone. It's nice to have the place to yourself but have a bunch of friends who regularly visit. I'd like to get back as soon as I can now.
I got driven down to the Worldspan offices for this meeting on Wednesday feeling all important. And then when back in the office mid afternoon, was asked by my parent to detour going back to Birmingham via theirs to fix their recently broken computer. So I ended up staying in Southwold for a few days which was lovely. It's always lovely to visit my parents, they're so loving and welcoming, feeding me well and looking after me. :-)
And now I'm back in Birmingham and I'm not exhausted, I'm not waking up feeling sick every day and I have generally ok energy levels. Not wishing to get too hopeful but this week and a half has been the best in a number of months. I just wish this is a sign of improvement.
Great news to hear that you're on the up! You might even be ready to tackle a Southampton visit again soon :)

What he said :) It's great to hear you sounding so chirpy - do look after yourself, and don't let we people that miss you hassle you too much ;)

Yay, thank you both.
A trip down to sunny Southampton sounds like a brilliant idea. It's been far too long since we met up.
