Sarah briefly coming back to the uk

Partly because of my dad's illness and also because she is still waiting for her work permit in the US, Sarah is flying back to the uk tonight to see friends and family for three weeks. Fortunately Matt can pick her up at heathrow tomorrow, he hasn't seen her for over two years!
She and Mike are yet to tell their friends that they married in brisbane, so i'm not sure when she comes over whether she will tell them or not.
My mum and dad will be pleased to see them as i suspect dad thought he wouldn't see her again.
This sunday will see a large family gathering at our house, where Sarah will catch up with family and whilst she's here she will at least catch up with friends in the south, even if she doesn't travel north.
I'm sure it will feel a little strange for her, because for the last two plus years she and Mike have really only had each other, whether it was travelling in south america for six months or new zealand for three months, semi-following the british lions or then in australia and now california. They had the most fabulous time but they also dealt with quite dangerous and difficult circumstances.
I'm looking ofrward to welcming her home, if only for three weeks!
