So, we are finally at the airport. Took 2 and a half hours which is riduclous. The journey was not without some panic. We sat in ststionary traffic for what felt like forever, and Sarah's junction on the M1 leading to the M25 was closed due to an accident, and then Sarah's car got shunted from behind!! But, we have madeit, and on time!!! Packing light quite clearly didn't register with me and Sarah, my case weighed in at 27.7kg!! But no charges for extra weight,...

So, just under 3 weeks to go until Sarah and I leave for Sydney. To say I'm excited is an understatement! Although, excited as I am, nerves and fear are starting to set in. I'm pretty much having a breakdown trying to decided what clothes to pack, and trying to get my life sorted out before I go, banks, credit card bills, insurance!!! Argh!!!! But I'm sure all this stress and worry will be but a distant memory in 3 weeks when we're sunning it up on Bondi Beach!!...
