Had a wonderful time with the family over Xmas, Mam had everyone over to hers this year for a change, so that I'd get to spend Xmas day with as many of the fam as poss. I'd called in on my other side of the family on Xmas morning, then I got to see more cousins at my auntie's this afternoon. Claire & Gary had our friends round this evening for a Chilli, think the red wine's gone down a little too well, hope I don't have a hangover tomorrow - have quite a lot to do. Walked home with Katie & Nick, they're going traveling this time next year so we chatted about routes & budgets all the way home. My best friend Vicky gave me a St Christopher silver keyring this evening, it keeps ... read more

The BA strikes were announced illegal in court, so they can't go ahead, yey! But we've now got a freak snowstorm in the UK and lots of flights have been cancelled in the last few days. To make matters worse I've just read on Facebook that Ellie's snowed in (she's living in Yorkshire at the moment) so I'm just praying we don't get any more snow from now until the 27th! PS: I'm not a scrooge really - a White Xmas would be fabulous, just as long as our flight can take off with both of us in it!... read more

Had a brilliant leaving do with Ellie last night! Started at Ellie's Mams house, then walked down to our local The Farmers Arms in Wilmslow to meet everyone. There were photos of Ellie & I all round the pub, and we ended up dancing on tables then taking the party back to Dena, Ant & Jeromes house. ... read more

When I got in to work this morning a colleague mentioned that BA are planning strikes between Xmas and the 4th of January. I wasn't too worried, but sent Ellie a message to keep an ear out for more news. Ellie rang me this afternoon, the strikes have been confirmed. And it turns out we might be on a BA flight all the way to Bangkok. Well that's just wonderful (!)... read more

Got my passport back with a stamp in it for entry to Thailand and one for Vietnam. Had the last of my jabs this morning - so I'm now covered against Hepatitis A & B, Typhiod, Tetanus, Diptheria, Polio, Rabies and Japanese Enchephalitis!... read more

Ellie & I arranged to meet for lunch in Gusto Alderley with our Mum's so they can swap numbers and keep in touch while we're away. Ellie turned up with a travel pack for each of them (including maps, itineraries and information on the places we're visiting) which was hilarious! Ellie doesn't come across as the organised type, but she'd make a better PA than me! We had a fab few hours and went for a few drinks in The Farmers Arms after. Ant's lent us a vacuum suction thing that you use when your stung or bitten by a nasty creature, it's meant to get the venom out but we had more fun vacuuming it to people's faces and tongues. Ellie came out with a few of her classic bimbo comments which is always entertaining. ... read more

Had a crazzy night out (all over the place) for Ellies bday last night. Tom & Coasty were out too so the four of us talked "Thailand" until the very early hours. We did an excellent job of trashing my flat last night... needless to say I wont be tidying THAT up today. A day with my duvet is needed ... read more
