Well, we’re just about ready. Xmas shopping is now officially finished, my paper is 98% done (just have to review and upload it now) and the re-org at work is just about sorted; I personally know what my job will be when I return from vacation, but some people won’t know until tomorrow or Friday…or maybe later(!).

Tomorrow night we’re arranging to have the boys looked after while we’re gone; Friday we’re having people over to watch the new extended edition of Return Of The King and order Swiss Chalet (as has become a bit of a custom for me lo these past 3 years). After that, we just have to pack and hope for good flying weather on Sunday.
