First up, my hail damaged car was written off by the insurance company. Fortunately I was able to replace it very quickly with a younger and nicer car, so while I am a bit out of pocket on the changeover, all in all it worked out well.
Then the project I was working on was suspended, so I was abruptly out of a job. I have been thinking for a while about travelling to the UK, and had shelved my plans until the end of the year because work was so busy. Suddenly that wasn't an issue any more, so I decided that this was a golden opportunity to make the trip. I have blogged about the trip itself in a separate blog:

The final change is that my sister has had her baby, which makes me an aunt. Definitely a good change there! :)
