2G2BT?

I hope my blogs have been making sense this week.
My head has been a mangled mush so it’s been hard to stick four words together coherently, much less try and think about grammar, structure and writing in an accurate and entertaining way.
Thankfully, the state of near-panic I’ve been existing in for what feels like months has now given way to a much more welcome emotion - EXCITEMENT!
David and Becky think we’re great. Well, they think Philippa is great, I’m just being accepted by proxy. They’ve asked us to get CRB checks, and they’d like a couple of references for each of us. Tom and the captain of the sports club have already agreed to do them for Philippa; I’m going to ask Ted and Ginger Graham if they’ll do mine.
The deal is we get the house rent-free, but we pay all the bills and we’re not allowed to leave the house empty, so we can’t take a holiday til next Spring.
David tells us that his company are always sending people abroad to install and manage systems, so there are always people looking for house-sitters. Apparently there’s plans to set up a ‘recommended’ list, so Philippa and I may be able to make a habit of this if it all goes well.
Existing as professional hermits, never having roots but never having to worry about a mortgage? Sounds good to me…
