Greetings

Greetings and salutations to one and all!
Ok, so now you can tell that I have been watching a little too much Frasier this morning, if it is indeed possible to do so...

Anyway, I have been meaning to start a regular blog for a while, but things have always gotten in the way...until now...

In 15 Days time, I shall be leaving these fair shores to begin my year abroad in Alberta, Canada.
Its going to be interesting, as no-one from my course will be there, and only two others from the Leeds Uni will be there, both of whom are on the same civil engineering course...more interesting, as I may not get to know them too well...we shall see!

Anyways, back to the point!

My year abroad gives me the perfect opportunity to start blogging regularly, and also gives the people I have annoyed for so long over here an opportunity to see how I'm doing while away; should be fun! For me maybe, it's you lot that will be reading my seemingly endless rambling.

Hopefully I'll be posting every couple of days re-telling my adventures and how I'm coping with the cold (Daily high temp of -10 celsius in January, or so I am led to believe...) and life over there in general.

For now, I must get back to packing, but I will hopefully posting something new soon!
