15 hours and I'm officially on Holiday!

That's it I've just finished packing my suitcase, I've run through and checked everything, passport, tickets, money etc...

All I have to do now is endure a half day at work, thank God I'm finishing work at 2.30pm. I don't think I could stand a full day, and then have to drive over to the hotel in Manchester in rush hour traffic. The thought of being able to check in at the airport the night before you fly is fantastic, no rushing across to the airport 2 hours before you fly. At least we can stroll across and have a leisurely, relaxed breakfast without the hassle of standing in line.

I don't know if I'll have time to post before I fly out on Saturday, I'm not taking my laptop so unless I find an internet cafe in Las Vegas or LA, you won't hear from me until I get back on the 20th November.

I still don't feel excited...

Early frost..

It's happened, I had to spend 5 minutes defrosting the car this morning. Xmas is just around the corner, Sunday night is Bonfire night and the leaves have all but dropped.

The end of the year is nigh!

Time to finish packing my suitcase!!!

Altogether different...

It's Halloween night and we've had the sum total of one little boy with his dad knock on the door. I know there's a lot of old folk where I live, but I thought we'd have had more than that. Oh well, maybe next year I'll go out trick or treatin myself!

I thought going on your holidays was supposed to be a stress free time, NOT. My head is a jumble of what to take, is it clean? does it need ironing? where is it?

I think I need to go to bed and start afresh tomorrow!

Halloween Madness

It's now only a few days until my holiday, I've not even started to pack yet. I'll be standing ironing and packing tonight as I don't have much time to do it during the rest of the week. I lead an exciting life don't I?

Everything else is sorted, tickets, money, sunglasses..etc

If I don't get chance to post before I go...I'll catch up when I get back.

Wish me Bon Voyage!

A return to the fold...

I can't believe it's been over a month since I last updated this. Time has just flown by and it seams that so little has happened.

My holiday is now only 4 weeks away and it seems an age since it was booked, but there it is almost on the horizon and most within reach if I close my eyes. I'm there already sat on the white sand on Venice Beach watching the guys go by…
