So, not long to go now before we’re off on our trip – less than 3 weeks and counting! Paul has only 6 days left at work and then we have his 50th birthday celebrations – off to North Norfolk with a few close friends for some glamping – must remember to make the most of the luxury facilities before we start the real thing.

Loads of things still to sort out – seems to be a lot of planning, and I must remember we’re not going forever – only about 8 weeks for our first trip. France and Italy here we come!
