Wooooooooooo! Setting off tomorrow!

[Bonnie]

Right... the last load of washing has been done, I've stocked up on supplies for packed lunches for the train, and all of our travel tickets are safely packed away in a little folder! All we need to do now is pack (although we have everything ready and it's just a case of fitting it all into the suitcases!) and make the lunches. Then we're off! We won't be in DLRP until Friday midday as we're staying over in London tomorrow night (being northerners and all! Well, I am, and Claire likes to pretend...) but we're getting the train down to London tomorrow lunchtime.

Travelling back home
Writing a trip report for the DIS boards

I've been waiting to go back to DLRP for seven years now, and actually did book to go in 2000 but it all fell through at the last minute (quite literally) and we never got any of the money back (£1,000... eep), so I'm kind of nervous about this one. Worried that something will go wrong... but excited too. I'm hoping I'm just being excessively paranoid and everything will actually go fine for once.

Panic, panic.

Ahem. Right, I must go and sort out those lunches!!! Will probably be reading the board right up until the last minute but I wanted to post this now anyway.

See you on the 16th or maybe the 17th if I'm too tired to post when we return! We plan to take loads and loads of photos and probably some videos too, so I'll post those when we get back.

Au revoir!

Too late for anything to go wrong now Bonnie.
Itinerary sounds great , no car no parking worries and CDG airport.
Just hop on the train and roll off in DLRP.
Part 4 just been posted , you'll have to wait till you get back to read the last bit.
Both of you have a fantastic time

You're just tempting fate with that comment, Berwyn! Anything can go wrong and probably will knowing my luck!

But I'll try to stay positive.

 

[BCT]

No that's usually us. try this one , our travel agent shut the day before we went. He did not tell us till the week before, thank goodness we had the tickets.

Jodie

 

[Bonnie]

Oh dear Berwyn! That would've been a bit of a problem had you not picked them up!

Thanks Jodie... will try to! And Humbug I hope you have a fab time!

I've also remembered that the day I return to Hull, I'll find my exam results and degree classification on the doormat, and a letter telling me whether I'm eligible to graduate from uni or not. Oh fun!

 

[BCT]

Oh! naughtyword
we'll keep everything crossed for you hile you're away Bonnie,
BTW what are you still doing here I thought you were sorting clothes out on the bed

So Bonnie, wheres all the excitement gone Theres a bit of a blood theme going on in your visit to London eh!! You could have taken the time out and come for a visit down here to Kent - ive a spare bedroom for free and I cook a mean sugar puffs in the morning You could have caught the Eurostar from Ashford!!
Have a wonderful trip, take oodles of piccies/notes, enjoy your swimming and may all your queues be liccle ones!!

 

[Miffy2003]

Have a wonderful trip Bonnie! Nothing will go wrong

Just don't do as my sister did - discover on Christmas Day when your coach leaves on Boxing Day that you have lost your passport. She's never got over not going to DLP!

 

[Bonnie]

Theres a bit of a blood theme going on in your visit to London eh!!

Haha, don't I know it! I thought it was an omen when I realised we'd booked to see those two shows... my mum said "pack some extra tampons!" when I told her. Oh dear! That wasn't the sort of omen I was talking about! (I have quite a vivid imagination and imagined some sort of horrible disaster... anyway, we won't go there.)

The sugar puffs sound too good to miss! What a shame we'll miss that!

Berwyn - The clothes are sorted! I'm having a sit down and just sorting out my email.

Thanks Dee and Miffy... and Miffy, that sounds awful! I will double (and triple) check that we have ours!

All youve gotta remember is Money, Tickets, Passport - the rest is just miscellaneous fluff!! Oh, except the new swim suit of course!!
If you plan again just remember we are enroute!! I promise I dont bite, the kids are housetrained, the dog is,er, sometimes (!) and doesnt bite either.

 

[BONITATIME]
