Jumping through hoops!

Loving it over here living in England! It's been five weeks now and it can get overwhelming at times what with all of the differences, big and small, in doing or completing similar things back in the states.

Take our dog Haley for example:

• 6 months quarantine. Done at home so not a huge deal.
• She needed shots. Rabies, titer, and an International microchip.
• She needed a crate that fit her.

All well and good. So she is here and doing great and we want a vacation so we head to a kennel where she can stay for a ten-day and lo and behold, she needs more shots.

So I had to:

• Locate a new vet and make appointment
• Walk her there as we went from a two car family to a no car one skateboard two kick scooter family.
• Get new shots which consisted of a cocktail of things some of which she just recieved back in the states.
• Go back in two weeks and do it again.

Now she is ready for her booking and subsequent stay.

Health Care.

Hey they've got National Health Care over here.

• Had to call to get info and application in the post.
• Sent back and wait for response
• May need to go for an interview
• It's free! (but you are taxed so much you may think so)

Did I mention we are loving it over?

Well it's true we do, despite all of the differences we do!

Back soon. Peace
