I am here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The flight from KL starting off looking like it was going to be a total nightmare. For some reason the bulkhead seat they put me in was in the middle of THREE adults and the guy who was sat on my left decided that he needed BOTH armrests and got out a book and poked him in the ribs constantly for the 30 minutes before the plane took off. I was just beginning to wonder how i would survive the next 12 hours sat next to someone so incosiderate, when I noticed that there were actually free seats around me, I asked one of the stewardesses if it would be possible to move and recognising my need instantly she moved me to an empty row. THANK YOU to the lovely stewardess for spotting a mother in need!!! As a result both Joey and I were able to sleep in comfort and he slept for about 10 hours in total. (Thanks again to calpol I suspect!) I breezed through immigration and my bag was already on the belt when I got to the luggage area so I was with my parents 40 minutes after landing. I am SO happy to be home. I know this feeling won't last long when my parents start fighting and then the issues between my Mum and brother rear their ugly head so for now I am enjoying being spoilt and not having to worry about anything. It is also SO nice to be back in the UK and be normal. I can talk to people in the knowledge that they aren't trying to get to know me to practise english. My Mum can take my son to play with the neighbour's kids without having to phone/ organise it 6 weeks beforehand. I can let J loose in the garden. I am already realising how hard it will be to go back to Japan in August!!
