Only days away...

Hellooooo - I'm sure there are many of you who thought I'd abandoned this site but never fear loyal readers, I have returned to add more inane ranting before I jet off on Tuesday (Aug 1). Better late than never eh... ;)
And if I manage it there may even be a piccie attached to this... I don't know, the wonders of modern technology eh. ;) It is my good self with one of my wonderful mates: Cordelia Brabbs - a published author no less. The fruits of her labour is called the 'Goddess Power Pack' and it's FAB - I recommend every female out there to go and buy it as it's really empowering and positive - just what we all need. Ok, shameless plug over. ;)
I think I'm almost prepared - went out for a walk round the block yesterday with my full rucksack, the feat almost prompted me to jack it all in but I thought "nah, I like a challenge". There are still some things I haven't managed to squeeze in the pack yet... like clothes... but I'm not worried. Everything will be fine.
There is one thing I gurantee, no matter how many months I've been planning this, I can assure you that I'll still be faffing around with stuff at midnight on Monday!
So the next time I write it will be from Nihon (Japan). I've watched Lost in Translation again so I think I'm as ready as I'll ever be! ;)
Sayonara until we meet again.
