Disco' in the Far East

My last day at work was Wednesday, I thought I'd be really excited but I think the feeling was more one of relief - that I've never got to go back there.

It was sad saying bye to the imporant people, I'll really miss them, hopefully they'll have a read of this now and then and not forget about me.

My work leaving do was brilliant. Had a really good night, think everyone else enjoyed themselves too and got lots of nice photos.

It's only 6 days till we leave now. Last night Baz phoned me at about 10pm ish and we were both like "oo this time next week we'll have boarded the plane", but then we have to stop talking about it as I get scared! Sad, really.

There's not a lot left to do now, preparation wise. I've already done a trial run of packing the backpack and found rolling my clothes is the best way. Got the first aid kid sorted, clothes, sun cream, and all that jazz. Just thinking now about getting photocopies of all documents, what to take in my hand luggage, what to wear on the plane, and lots other insignificant thoughts.

I'll be sure to post before we leave! xx

I'm on my lunch break at work, bored out my brains, no change there and struggling to stay awake. If ever there was a job that drained you of all your energy and the will to live even, this would be it.

Yesterday we went on a little shopping trip for some holiday clothes. Primark and Matalan - brilliant!

Also got our ipod, its beautiful.

Ooo I'm getting excited - although it still doesn't seem real!

So this is our, or should I say my first entry. Barrie is not likely to write much on here, but perhaps he will suprise us all.

It is 37 days until we depart on our mini adventure to Thailand. Being as this trip was planned kinda last minute and I am saving to "be a student", our adventure is for a month only. So as such we're not discovering (or disco' in - Barrie's idea!) the Far East, but travelling around Thailand.

However, that is not to say we will not have a brilliant time.

I'm already stressing/worrying about almost everything; from where we're going to stay, to how Barrie will cope with spicy food. I'm hoping it will all just .. happen .. by itself, minimum effort required?

I might keep an update of our preparationsss.
