Well as I sit here a week away from leaving, I thought I'd give in to the peer pressure of starting a 'blog' to keep everyone up-to-date on my travels. Hopefully this will suffice!

So... what do I need to do in the week before I leave? Thankfully, not a lot. I've sorted my various direct debits, newly obtained plastic money , phone and car contracts which only really leaves me the task of packing.

More to come in a weeks time - I hope!
