Me too Rach - I watch the programmes on telly & am blubbing before the people on screen - dread to think what state we will be in when the moment comes - I am welling up just thinking about it now.

cheers

Just come back from Chinese with the in laws and am now struggling with making sure the cases don't exceed 32kgs and have suddenly discovered that we are 24kgs over our allowance.

Shit - does anyone know what Singapore Airlines charge for excess baggage?
About 33 quid a kilogramme.

Last meal with mother and father in law tonight and then leaving thiers at 7am tomorrow for Heathrow.

Shit, this is tough!!

Excited, nevertheless.
Hey Billabong and Earlswood, best of luck with your journey and future plans, hope they all go smoothly.
