A week to go


My son will be back from Iraq next ~Friday.

He's got his flight details now does this make sence?

Leave Iraq for Germay, Fly from Germany to Brisenorton in England then coach it from there to Edinburgh ( a 12 hour drive min) Yet there is an air port in Edinburgh

Re: A week to go


Hi Guys
He should be home for about a year. That is unless any more trouble breaks out.
He was on the phone on Thursday. Sounding really tired but well and that's the main thing. Only problem now is when they get back from a tour like this they hit the drink for a while. Then they open up to things that they have seen. Sometimes not nice. At least he's in Edinburgh.

Re: A week to go


I took a coach from London Victoria to Edinburgh a few years ago, with a (then) 17-month-old small child.

I don't even want to think about it And no, that doesn't make a lick of sense. But at least he'll be home - I bet you can't wait to see him again.

Re: A week to go


Plenty of cuddles and a sympathetic ear when needed.

It's funny but this is the second tour he's done in Iraq and I have been more worried this time than I was the last.
Yes I'm really looking forward to having him home.
