I’d been trying to email you but have been getting the old “This is a permanent error/mailbox is full/retry timeout exceeded” etc. in return. Having read this post it makes some sense. You’ve probably been inundated with holiday requests and hints of free accommodation! Next time I’ll not lose myself in work so much that I don’t even check my bloglines for 2-3 weeks.

My belated condolences with the loss of your Grandad.

As someone who will (hopefully) be over not too far behind you I’ll be reading your posts on life Down Under with great interest. Still waiting on visas, still to sell the house, still to sort out travel/quarantine for the dog, still to book flights etc. You know the drill by now of course… you are entering the exciting part but equally stressful I am sure.

Best of luck to you both and see you in QLD before the year is out.

The weather – it’s blowing a bloody gale here. I hate going out of glasgow when it’s windy, the pitch and roll really is extremely alarming!!

I don’t know you, but have been reading your blog for a while now. Good luck on your new adventure, think of it like that and maybe it won’t be so scary? Sorry about your Grandfather too. Rotten timing.

Nadeem – It’s good to know my exact value to you, lol!

ps. I don’t fly well either.
