Hectic would be out by vast proportions. Today can simply be summed up as go-go-go! I've placed two print orders and still have one to go - 7500 different articles in total - that's a lot of printing. I'm just relieved it is so close to over.

I still have to pack, and considering this time tomorrow I'm going to be mid-Atlantic the words 'skin' and 'of my teeth' spring to mind.

The parents have decided to treat us to a Chinese tonight (fantastic) and then the ball gets rolling for departure. James is going to turn up at some god-forsaken hour of the morning and we will then depart for Heathrow. Usually we would have gone to and from Birmingham, but this year we decided to try somewhere a little more 'exotic', opting to drive all the way down south to catch the flight. Thank god it's not with BA.

I also need to venture into town to pick up some last minute provisions, but I wouldn't be surprised if I totally forget something critical as up until this point I haven't really had a chance to concentrate on holiday yet. Any chance of getting a haircut has already passed as it's now mid/late afternoon, and there is no way I've got time for that sort of luxury.

I've still got letters to post, tents to return and invoices to deliver, but at least it is all within a stones throw. I don't know how often I am going to be able to blog while I am away. I will try to keep it regularly done - after all - the whole point of this in the first place was that I could write about my travels.

So if I don't get a chance to speak to anyone reading this before I go... I'll catch you in a few days from the other side of the big pond.
