This is it, the adventure is about to begin, with an delay waiting for the plane, to then be told the plan has technical issue with the air con, so we are sitting here waiting and wondering if we've got everything we need, admittedly there isnt much point in worrying as its not as if we can put extra stuff in the back packs, although packing at 1am a couple of hours before the flight was never a good idea.
When did they get full body scanners? I suppose it is better then a full body frisk!
We are still rubbing the bruises on our arms from all the jabs we required and questioning if we have enough malaria tablets and mosquito spray.
Dont get me started on music...........thats an effort especially when your laptop freezes as you are about to leave and desperately trying to get those last few songs added to you I pod 2 minutes before you leave!!
Bangkok is going to be interesting as well, we dont seem very confident at haggling especially after doing the carboot in farnborough, being that people didnt want to pay 50p for anything, although some of them were nice enough to help us unpack the car so they could have a rummage through the boxes.
With the goodbyes said, and multiple skype "tests" done to ensure people can stay in contact, with varying success!!
This will probably be the main place in which we'll be interacting with people, not that we wanna make people jealous as i presume quite a few are .
so if you wanna keep up to date or even just see what we've been up to here is the best place.
Bye bye house, bye bye car, bye bye england.

Andrew Smith All the best buddy! if you need any advice on SE Asia then ask away as i have more than enough info! will be in Thailand in a few weeks for a holiday as well so dont worry about the bartering you will pick it up quickly! - biggest tip is always start the bidding at below the half price mark and if you get to the limit you want to pay just walk off if they wont meet YOUR price!
Christine d'Argent Hi there...hope you had a good flight. Now the adventure begins..can't wait to see your first photo's. Wishing you both all the best. Luc Christine
Luke Robinson Have a good one guys! Keep us up to date!
Wendy Hill Well the house is quiet although Dad has been shouting away to the football and Chelsea's goals. Talk about a clear run to the goal in the final minutes.... So I hope you are both able to sleep and be ready for your early start. Looking forward to your next instalment and hopefully some photo's. Lots of love Mum xxx
