Preparation update...

Alright, I think I have my Kent accommodation sorted. Just need train tickets now.

Overnight trip to Cardiff with HQ is starting to slip into place and we also have day 1 tickets to Wimbledon. Hurrah! Dinner in Cardiff looks like it's going to be in a Doctor Who filming location from Season 1. Yay! *geeks out*

Only 2 weeks to go... 10 working days!

Nearly ready...

So... I'm about 2 and a half weeks out from flying out of Australia for the first time. My general itinerary shall go like this: London, Cumbria, back to London for Wimbledon (with a side trip to Cardiff), Muenster (Germany), Kent, and London once more. Roughly a week for each section although I think I'm only in London 2 or 3 days at first before heading to Cumbria with HQ. 6 weeks altogether. Woohoo!

By the way, I will refer to various friends along the way by initials- privacy and all.

I am mostly booked. Just need to book some accommodation and train tickets for my Kent week and then a hotel in Sydney after I return and the final bus back to Canberra. Apart from that it is just small tasks, such as buying rechargeable batteries and clearing off my camera SD card so that I'm ready to record my journey in pictures as well as by words.

As far as countdowns go - I suspect the most important one is... only 12 days of work left!
