The Planning

Well eventually I have got my flights booked, I fly out to Delhi on the 29th of Feb. Then I am going to go with the flow as they say (yes I can do this) and spend some time in South East Asia before flying onto Australia where I plan to spend Xmas and New Year in Sydney (hoping some of my friends may decide to join me here - do you fancy???) before going onto New Zealand. I have to be back in UK by the end of Feb next year when I will have a mad turn around before heading off again (I hope).

Plans starting to come together , Cassie (my cat) has a new home, all the medical stuff is sorted and I have most of what I need to go away, house is all but packed though still have to find a tenant - even have the leaving party booked - 23rd Feb at The Junction in Glasgow (come along if you are at a loose end). I am of course not completely organised - well wouldn't be me if things weren't a little chaotic - but as I finish work on the 1st of Feb I have a few weeks to sort out the last minute things - like my Visa and where am I going to stay on my first night......

How impressed are you that I have managed to set up a Blog page all on my own and have even made my first blog entry????

Will try to keep it updated as I travel so that anyone who is interested can keep up to date with whatever trouble I am managing to talk myself out off.......

Feel free to leave some responses - but I warn you that knowing some of my friends you might not want to read what others write if you are easily offended.........I have disclaimed do not expect compensation for PBS(Post Blog Stress)!!!!!

Hopefully I'll be at your leaving doo ..... but just want to wish you all the best on your adventure..... having not spoken to you for some considerable time i will probably hear from you more as you travel the world.

Good Luck !

Thanks Bob - don't know where time goes to be honest. Good thing about the internet, I suppose it makes it much easier to keep in touch - even if time has passed!!

Hi Jackie,

Was great to spend time with you yesterday! Despite being hungover! You will be pleased to know, today after I did my uni work I sat down and wrote a CV! Going to hand it in to places next week while shopping for William's Valentines present!

Speak to you soon,

The Taj Mahal looks amazing in your pictures - almost other worldly! I would love to see that for myself some day. Enjoying your pics and commentary so keep up the good work. You're not missing much in the UK. . . rain and gales xx
