agreed Wink
I have a little over two weeks to go. But, I still have plenty to do before I go, so I hope I don't run out of time Wink

Also with all this swine flu around I hope I don't end up getting confined to my hotel room in London for five days upon arrival! People are trying to scare me!

Hi Gennevive, I can't believe you only have just over two weeks until you leave for your beloved Italy Smiler

Have a great holiday and don't worry about the swine flu, I'm sure you will be fine.

I am going to see if I can get Tamiflu just in case!

Hopefully my flu vaccination will protect me.

I'd hate to end up with it, I have managed to get through two flu seasons without so much as a sniffle! I am usually the only one on the bus to do the whole trip without catching the usual tour bus lurgy.

I will have to be much more vigilant using the Fess and the Garlic and Horseradish this time.

Only two weeks and three days to go!! I will be getting some things organised for my suitcase this weekend. Excited!!!

I finish work today and fly out Tuesday and am very excited. Have been trying to steer clear of people at work with colds etc.

I packed most of my things last weekend and was very happy when the case weighed under 18kg.

As this is my first time doing a tour I've really appreciated the BB and all the hints I've gathered.

Enjoy your holiday Laj & Genn.

Cheers
JenMM

Have a great time Jen. I'm sure you will.


When you travel, remember that a foreign country is not designed to make you comfortable. It is designed to make its own people comfortable.

I went to work this morning and 'yikes' - I realise I only have ten working days left and the work I have to do before I go equates to 'toooo much'.

I don't need to count down, I know time is passing far too fast now.

This weekend I will be going through my clothes and setting aside what I know I want to take and sorting out what electrical stuff I need to take to keep things working. I have one dilemma. Do I take the big SLR camera, or just take the point and shooter this time. I think the SLR will win, it takes great photos! It does take up a lot of room and is a wee bit bulky to cart around, but my favourite holiday photos are all taken with it.

A fantastic product is the First Defence nasal spray. You take it at the first sign of symptoms and it kills germs quickly. It's been a Godsend for me.

I packed my suitcase and it weighs in at NINE kilos!!!! How good is that!!???
