Yorkshire Day

Yesterday (1st August) was Yorkshire Day and we found ourselves thinking back to our life in York and looking forward to going home. I posted a blog 2 years ago about cycling along the river bank and listening to the steam trains. In the evening we went to a pub in the Morris Minor and sat in the garden on a lovely warm evening.

I was also thinking about travelling to Uganda in 2 months time and the wonderful opportunity to live and work here. We are now into our final 2 months here and can look back on an enjoyable and successful placement. We've also had lots of opportunities to sit outside on warm evenings.

This week has seen a flurry of activity as British Airways suspended their flights from Heathrow to Entebbe after 2nd October. They have reviewed their flights and closed uneconomic routes of which Entebbe is one. This means that there will be no direct flights from the UK to Uganda. It has always been good to know that we can be home in 9 hours if we need to.

Unfortunately we were booked on the flight leaving Entebbe on 17th October. Glen moved his flight back and after discussions with my placement I've done the same. So our thoughts are now moving to closing down, finishing work and packing up.
