		<title>The End of my Year Abroad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[OK so it&#8217;s been nearly a week since I got back from France so I thought it was about time I wrote that roundup post I promised. At the time I was too busy in sightseeing mode with Mum and Alan and to be honest the reality of leaving for the last time hadn&#8217;t sunk [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ayearinamiens.wordpress.com&blog=4849529&post=293&subd=ayearinamiens&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Bidding Adieu to Amiens</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well I&#8217;m off home this morning! My stuff is all packed up and I&#8217;m just waiting for mum and Alan to arrive so we can load up the car, then I&#8217;ll clean my room over and check out! Our Eurotunnel is at about midday so if all goes to plan we&#8217;ll be back in Cornwall [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ayearinamiens.wordpress.com&blog=4849529&post=291&subd=ayearinamiens&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Les Hortillonnages and la Nuit des Musées</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday was quite a random day in all; in the morning I went for my last supermarket shop to get my dinner for tonight, and in the afternoon I went into town to take some pictures of favourite places like Jardin des Délices and Retroviseur, to buy some more macarons and to meet Sonia and [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ayearinamiens.wordpress.com&blog=4849529&post=283&subd=ayearinamiens&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>One Week to go!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just one week left! This time next week I will be well on my way to Cornwall. I&#8217;m sure it will seem like less than a week though as I have several things lined up to do; tomorrow I&#8217;m going to town and meeting up with Sonia, we&#8217;ll go for a walk round the hortillonages [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ayearinamiens.wordpress.com&blog=4849529&post=281&subd=ayearinamiens&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>A Day in (and under) Paris</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I did head for Paris yesterday in the end, and gambled with the weather. As it turned out, it didn&#8217;t rain at all and was even quite warm with a peek of sunshine. Certainly enough for people to be out lounging and picnicking in droves in the Jardins de Luxembourg. I didn&#8217;t get everything on [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ayearinamiens.wordpress.com&blog=4849529&post=278&subd=ayearinamiens&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Rain, more rain&#8230;and some cakes!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well I&#8217;m not impressed because it&#8217;s now chucking it down and it&#8217;s forecast for rain and even thunderstorms in Amiens and Paris for the entire week. I was planning to go to Paris tomorrow, which had been the only sunny day forecast, but I&#8217;m not keen on the idea of going in the rain. Although [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ayearinamiens.wordpress.com&blog=4849529&post=276&subd=ayearinamiens&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>One Week Down&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230; and two to go! Time does feel like it&#8217;s creeping by although I suppose this week hasn&#8217;t gone too slowly. Next week is likely to be a bit worse as I have now truly finished all my work. I wrote two short commentarys on plays for one of my literature modules and got them [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ayearinamiens.wordpress.com&blog=4849529&post=273&subd=ayearinamiens&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>La Rentrée</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Time is ticking by oh so slowly it seems! I am trying to take my time over the things I do and only do one or two things per day to keep myself entertained but already I&#8217;m bored. Life is so much more interesting back home! I will go out and socialise a bit this [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ayearinamiens.wordpress.com&blog=4849529&post=271&subd=ayearinamiens&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just as Obama is at the end of the beginning having just finished his first 100 days in office, I&#8217;m finding myself at the beginning of the end with just 20 days left of my year abroad! I will be officially checking out of France on Friday 22nd, barring any travel restrictions due to H1N1 [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ayearinamiens.wordpress.com&blog=4849529&post=269&subd=ayearinamiens&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
