Blender 2.8 switch-over / training

Hey all :) 

Some of you may remember me from a couple of years ago, those of you who do not , allow me to introduce myself - I am Matthew Fricker , a Blender enthusiast from Scotland. 

To cut a long story short (full version on the  most recent post on my polybook here :https://cgcookie.com/t/19-polybook-frikkr?page=2  - scroll to the bottom ) I had to take a long hiatus from Blender because my Wife and I had twins :) 

Anyways, I am getting time to get myself back into Blender now , but back when I was using it regularly , I was using 2.78 and now it seems that 2.8 has burst onto the scene and seems to be lot different to the Blender I am used to. 

I want to jump straight into 2.8 , and I see that CG Cookie has started doing all their recent lessons using it, but  I cant see any lessons that focus on that initial transition , showing the differences and explaining how the new interface works etc . I have so many questions such as "can I still transfer my addons to the new Blender build like you used to , or is 2.8 so radically different that you have to start over?" - I have purchased many addons such as Retopoflow , and it was always easy to bring them to a new build with you. 

Really , I am just looking for a decent resource that can show me the new Blender and help me transition to it as I am going to have a hard enough time as it is remembering all  I knew 2 years ago and I am keen to get back into my projects that have been gathering dust..... 

Thanks
