Wacky Races
Well today started off all very nice. Breakfast with the Aviary staff and writing up various things and leaving instructions for various people. Then it went a bit manic. I decided I wanted a bigger bag to fit my hand luggage in. So I went a brought one except even though it was bigger I couldn't fit half the stuff in it. So I ended up repacking the original bag and then was running out of time. So I phoned the taxi and put it back an hour ( Big thanks to the aviary for contributing). I had a shower raced round to pennys and dropped off the car tax forms and cash then got big hugs explained a few things about the car raced to the aviary to drop off some cds and things I wanted looking after and instructions. Then raced back to Theresas. I got introduced to their new Rottie pup very sweet and cute!! had coffee and started to wonder where the taxi was... and panicked 10 mins later.. so after a frantic phone call to Ian I then had to drive to his work place and he would take me to Heathrow. Except it was rush hour and everyone else had the same idea.. and then I got off the wrong exit.. and then I drove past him... and then I found the right place wrong bit of it and so on. So I eventually picked Ian up and we were off. It then became very real. Even more so as we saw a big plane taking off and I got very very scared. Ian was very good offering words of comfort along the lines of well noone is going to make you go if you really don't want to but you are driving back because I haven't a clue how to get out again. Given that option I picked rucksack up and went into the airport!
