What I dream of when feeling homesick

In no particular order:

Fish and chips meals out to the pub with my parents

Chaotic Sunday afternoon cafe visits with my wider family to shelter from the pouring rain

Taking a flight to Dortmund to see my girlfriend and enjoy the pure  Gemütlichkeit of her apartment

Jumping on a train and being with my uni mates in Sheffield in an hour and a half

A proper cup of tea

The British sense of humour

Christmas by the fire, huddled up from the freezing cold with my closest family and playing some terrible board game

The look on my nieces and nephews faces when I knock on the door of their house in Bristol

Games of tennis with my brother and camomile tea and curry nights with my sister

Fifa tournaments and afternoon kickabouts with my old school friends

Regional accents

The ability to understand everyone with minimal difficulty (although this admittedly has its drawbacks)

The rain

My guitar
