Golly, I’ve been deeply touched by the out-pouring of comments here and on Facebook. We were already looking forward to Glasgow, but by sharing your enthusiasm and your joy, y’all have raised the pitch of our anticipation to an entirely new register.
Unfortunately, my flat for the first year (at least) will be small — tiny, by U.S. standards, especially for someone as far along as I — but we’ll see if we can work up to a space with adequate guest room. And even in my tiny flat for this year, there‘s a sofa-bed.
Much to do, now, and a whole mountain of questions that I’ll begin asking in separate threads. Again, though, my heart thrills at the awareness that y’all are with us in this adventure, and I’m all the more thankful that the internet affords us an easy way to keep in touch.
Advertising your phone at a place like Cellswapper might fall under “selling it” and would probably not benefit you as much as it might if you were remaining in the U.S. and simply looking to upgrade your phone. On the other hand, there’s something to be said for the quick’n’easy handoff. Personally, I’m impatiently waiting for the remaining 12 months of my minimalist Sprint contract to be up before going iPhone.
