Last night in the UK, in Birmingham. We now have our zappy little laptop that will keep us in touch with things and people over the next 6 months. We also have a number of other gadgets which I daren't ask what they are for or where they have come from, we have one for everything including one that sticks everything to a car windscreen! My favourite gadget is the one that will make me a Pimms & Lemonade as the sun goes down in the desert.
LM (little mate) has been tricky of the last few days, as his routine has been completely destroyed, no childminder - Jane help!, no afternoon sleep, the girls have been away alot and he was watched the most TV ever, as we have been busy getting ready. He has turned into a difficult little boy, shouting at people, "dont say that" "don't look at me" Its the most difficult for him as he has no idea what is going on and its hard to explain it to him. He has got the idea of going on a plane, getting in a big car and sleeping in a tent. We'll just have to make sure we get him organised as soon as we get there.
We have got everything in the bags - but had to expand to one more as we were over the individual bag limit of 23kg. 7 bags in all, including 1 tent, 1 for all the sleeping bags, 3 for clothes, 2 of stuff!
Managed a final curry - although have to admit it was Thai not indian!
Next update in USA!
