I’ve been thinking about how many times I’ve been back to Thurso since I moved. I left home in September 2010. I’ve only been on two planned visits, once for Christmas in ‘10 and once in July ‘11 when I’d returned from Florida. Obviously I went home twice in quick succession in April/May when my Grandpa was hospitalised and for his funeral, otherwise, I probably wouldn’t have been there at all. I enjoy seeing my family but I loathe going back to my hometown.
