CAROL MILLER!
My Mum randomly picked a winner by selecting a number between 1 and 17 and she picked number 4 which was Carol's entry. If you could E-mail me your address Carol, I will send you your Blogoversary goodies! (After I've made the postcard of course!)
Sorry I was a late with the winners name... it was because I travelled down to Brighton for Easter, and although I took my laptop with me, I couldn't get dial up to work from my Mum's place. I've done a huge amount of driving this Easter, normally I would fly, but as my regulars will know, I've not been able to fly recently because of my ears. It's also actually cheaper to fly home these days because Petrol is so expensive.
Of course, the other problem I have when I drive home is that I am the only driver in my family and so I turn into a taxi/delivery/pick-up/drop off/returns service once I am at home. This effectively meant returning some DIY Kitchen goods to Wickes and two drives up to Croydon IKEA and back, plus trips to the Supermarket, B & Q and Comet. Basically I've come back home to Scotland for a rest.
Strangely, you would think all of this wasn't a good idea considering how sick I've been. I say strangely, because today was my first day back at work after my trip and I REALLY noticed a huge difference in my health at work - there's been a massive improvement whilst I've been away. I'm no longer coughing, my brain is no longer fuzzy, my memory is much sharper, my hearing is not yet perfect, but vastly improved and, unfortunately I've also put on more weight (not so good!) Maybe driving is good for me! LOL.
So good to hear that you are feeling better! =D
You should take a look at Åshild's blog, she's making a Budapest guide for some friends that she'll travet with this summer. (She lived in Budapest for a while some years back.) It's in Norwegian, but you can see the pictures... http://aashildreise.blogspot.com/

That's because being 'home' surrounded by people who love you is good for you, and that old adage 'a change is as good as a rest' applies too - sounds like you didn't rest much, but you did get out and about for a change :) Glad to hear you're feeling a bit better Kristy!
