Egg #2. Alan and I officially finished up at work on the 19th August (or 1.14 working weeks ago). The last 6 days have been relaxed, happy, fun, dizzy, lazy and downright irritating: RELAXED - Because we don't have to go to work ( yay!) HAPPY - See above 'relaxed' / looking fwd to getting away to the sunshine & further chilling. FUN - The Edinburgh Festival has been in full swing, so there's been lots of interesting things to do/see. DIZZY - Wine / beer / cocktails / more wine & beer & cocktails etc... LAZY - Getting up later [View Full Entry]

Egg #2: Hi all - the exciting departure date ever approaches - but we've had a bit of a change of plans re timing of leave and initial stops. We've now decided to go to France and Germany (Bavaria) on a drive / camp trip for about a month before leaving for Thailand. Nothing like a bit of sponteneity, eh? This has all came about following our weekend of camping at Roundyhill near Dundee - I'd never been camping before, as I've always operated on the basis that you can't plug a hairdryer into a field. However - I realised that [View Full Entry]

Egg #2: Well, we've only got 5 weeks now till we'll be in Bangkok - I cant quite believe it, the time is now rolling on so quickly it's really catching us by surprise! Egg#1 finished work last Thursday (he's SO pleased). Spent his first day getting up V early, sorting things out, being ultra organised - I was very impressed. 8 days on, and he's more chilled and getting into the rhythm of a relaxed holiday lifestyle. He's taken a big notion for sailing, and has just about signed us up to do an Royal Yachting Association qually while we're [View Full Entry]

Well, we have survived this year's T in the Park (just). Brilliant weekend, ace weather, top bands, funky vibes, ice cold cider, hell of a hangover. There were 70,000 people at this year's event - about 10,000 more than previous, and the site was laid out completely different than before. There were a couple of teething problems on the first day, in that the site gates did not open till 12:10 (ten mins late) but that was enough to create a queue backlog of an hour and a half. The waiting crowd were fairly relaxed, but the day was so hot [View Full Entry]

Egg #2 says: Thought I'd better write a bit about us Eggs to set our travel scene.... For about the last year, we've been getting our act together & making plans to leave the rat race, and seek fun and sunshine in countries that we've not yet visited. Two months ago, we both handed our notice in at work, rented out our house 30 miles south of Edinburgh (a seaside commuter town called Dunbar) and moved into a teeny flat in a central area of Edinburgh called Leith. We now have just over 8 weeks to go until we fly out [View Full Entry]

Today Edinburgh saw the Make Poverty History march that has been organised to draw attention to the leaders of the worlds weathiest nations that poverty around the world and particularly in Africa is something that the majority find unacceptable. The so-called Group of 8 (G8 for short) are meeting near Edinburgh over the next few days and so a number of events have been organised to co-incide. Over the years the G8 summits have drawn large crowds of protesters and sometimes rioting has taken place. These guys just seem to attract trouble wherever they go! Who knows wh [View Full Entry]
