Thanks to everyone for the words of wisdom and encouragement.

Its amazing when you start to think about those "extra" things you need to pack, how quickly the list grows and then you relise how many things you have to buy and then start to wonder if there will be any money left over for the trip.

Oh well, just take some more money out of the kids inheritence. Buggar them.

Hopefully I will be able to get some internet access somewhere along the line from time to time and let everyone know how its going, but then again, I might be having to much of a good time to worry about it.

Only 26 days to go.
