Well we've finally taken the plunge and are moving away from our beautiful island back to the mainland. There were lots of reasons for going, main ones being that now we are having no. 3 I wouldn't be able to work for some time, but there is no work here for dh to do, so we decided to move back to the mainland for work. Dh has landed an excellent job, IT technician to two local high schools, and we have found a fab house in a small village about 8 miles from our nearest town, and only 50 miles from where we are now (which isn't a lot given that we live in the Highlands!). We are (in theory) moving on 1st February, depending on the weather, boats etc, so we are busy packing up at the moment! Am currently taking a well-earned break from packing!
