Ok we succumbed. Inspired by a friend's blog we figured we'd have a go as well. Welcome to the ramblings of the Knights. Ok the title requires explanation - we spent 4 (yes I know only 4) glorious days in France at the end of July and fell in love with the place. I have to admit the Jardin Du Luxembourg did it for me. The adventure playground for the kids was fantastic, the grass was immaculate, the carousel was - well quite unlike anything I have ever seen. There were pony rides and puppet shows, great tennis courts, an art museum etc. etc. Now that was what I'd call a park!
So all we need now is a work transfer to France!

A bit of back tracking is needed. Why move again? Well I started off in Barbados, Jonty popped into existence in East London. I moved to England, Jonty was still in London. I moved back to the Caribbean - this time Trinidad, then Tobago (little island next door and much nicer). Yep you guessed it - Jonty was still London sitting. Eventually Jonty & I hooked up and we moved to Manchester. I studied & he worked (good lad). I passed my degree and had number one daughter. We stayed in Manchester a while (fantastic place make sure you visit) and then moved back 'down south'.
Anyway back down south we both worked and number one daughter went to nursery & then school.

I then had a mid-life crisis and left work to become a full time mum - note entry of number two daughter. Having survived mid-life crisis I'm now thoroughly enjoying being at home with my kids. Gone is the tearful child dropped at nursery or with the childminder. Gone is the 2 hour commute into London for work. What has this all got to do with moving. Not much but I really enjoy being in different places and my children seeing life from a different perspective and Jonty is happy being whereever I am.
Ok it's time to clean up the carnage created by number two daughter. Hope my next posting will make a little more sense. Tarra for now.
