What a Week!

There been so much to do and check, that Ros and I (the two BEN staff mad enough to join the team) left getting our visa's to the last possible minute and had to make a mad dash to London. We arrived, queued for the application and returned at the time we were instructed to. Only at this point did anyone realise that I had been given a receipt with the wrong name on. Thankfully this was finally resolved and we now have the shiny stickers that will let us cross the border.
However it doesn't stop there. We returned to find the vehicle we were planning on taking was now unavailable. 2 days of frantic phone calls followed as we tried to find a substitute. Thankfully its sorted and we now have wheels.

They say that things come in three's and they'd be right! I was moving some stuff at work this morning and tripped. So after a visit to the local casualty department, i can now announce that i have broken my arm! Oh well, it looks like Ros will be doing all the driving then.........
