Hi Bee, trust you to end up in a room with the wicked witch of the west, i would have been proper scared! heard on the news that the weather has been a bit freaky out there. Try and chill out a bit if you are having dizzy spells, you need to settle down and choose a job and then i'm sure you will feel a lot better.Try and get someone to take some photos of you and send them through if you can. Miss you soooooo much feels like you've been away forever already! love you loads, speak soon xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
