Reality check

Well, today was my final day of work for the next 6 months. Leaving my now familiar desk (and mug) was a little strange, very strange in fact! Nothing a few days in the Sun won't fix I hope...

Today I also needed to get my final jabs, pick up my Malaria tablets (I reckon £350 on jabs/meds so far) and buy a few other bits I'd neglected to buy... Yes, I'm the proud owner of some 'Jesus Sandals', sandals I'd promised myself I'd never wear!

Tonight we've spent the whole evening packing our stuff into boxes ready to move out tomorrow morning (the last morning we'll wake up in London until well into 2010). All pretty much sorted, bar the important bits like laptop, PS3 and TV. Speaking of which tonight was the first time I'd packed all my travel stuff into one bag... I think I need to prioritise, it's going to break my back!

Right, time for bed... actually no, time for another episode of Ultimate Fighter ;o)

Hi both [again]. Am going to send the link to your blog site to the rest of the family. I'm sure they'll all be interested in following your exploits through our miserable winter. Don't forget - if that rucksack does get too heavy...then simply call 1-800-rucksack/help and I'll jet out and carry it for you!

Hi guys. Got the link from Mark's email. Hope you have a great time, and stay safe! Very jealous of your trip, and I'm looking forward to seeing some good photos :)

Hi both. Hope you got to Buenos Aires ok. Weather looks ok for Thurs and Fri - up to 35c, then it's naff for the weekend, heavy rain and down to 16c. Head north eh! Take care both.
