Yes I know it's early for me to start writing but I felt that you should share the run up to the holiday. If I anti endure it then so must you! So back up a bit to last night or should I say morning. Went up to bed about 1am just started to drift off to the mantra tickets, passport, money... Works much better than counting sheep on such occasions. All of a sudden I say bolt upright announcing to the world that i hadn't packed any pants. I couldn't risk leaving i...

Just a practice run to see if I can remember my log in details! We are all packed and ready for the off. Don't know why I did mine today ... I would much rather rush to get it done tomorrow! Housemates have been very unsettled today, even though they enjoy their time at 'the hotel' they are always unsettled in the run up. I don't know why but my checking of trip adviser reviews of the hotel has reached an all time high for me ! I don't know what difference it ...

Deluxe must be better and deluxe plus must be even more better ( yes I know if that was a child speaking you would have co...

This has been the longest day! About 36 hours long, and 30 of those were just this morning. Housemate#1 took a record time to bathe and dress this morning. Despite her 'na na na' protestations at the suggestion of a weekend by the sea she did a good impression of someone excited at the prospect this morning. Well and truly in holiday mode, I made us all spaghetti on toast for breakfast. Quite a tight time schedule today: leave home for Rochester at 12, walk to ...
