Default We're outta here!!!!!!!!!

The artep clan are finally off....we fly tomorrow night at 10.15pm with singapore airlines....the airline with hostesses as thin as pipe cleaners...grrr how DO those women do it????

I've yet to pack.. ....but its a bit tricky to do it until tomorrow as there's standing room only in this house. I'm doing it in the morning after the old man has taken the kids mattresses up the tip and I'll have room to open the cases!!!!!

We had our sort of leaving do thing on Saturday night...basically we went to the pub at 4...told all our mates that was where we'd be and drop in whenever you like. I was very 'restrained' with the booze....didn't want to make a complete arse of myself & blub non-stop
Almost everyone came...there was a few no-show-ers but it's times like this you find out just who your real friends are. Thankyou to 'pompeywill' + gang.....it was great to see you guys....good luck with the house!!!!! I'll pay you a visit when I come for my hols in Perth!!!! Also thankyou to Pauline + hubby for coming...I so hope your visas make an appearance soon & your house sells quick so you don't have that huge expense of validating for you all!


I'd like to thank all you people on here who have put up with my incessant whinging about my 'piggin' house!!! You've all been an amazing support to me.......I really don't know what I would have done without all your kind words encouraging me to be positive and not hire a hitman for my estate agent!!!!!!

To all you guys out there who are yet to get over that mammoth hurdle of your house sale then hang in there.....it WILL happen. If it can happen to me after all that time...then it will happen for you too....have faith!!!.......and badger your agents!!!!!!

Right Brissy gang... I'm on my way!!!!!!!!...

Aaahhhhh scary stuff Petra. - The packing I mean not the changing your entire life

Have a great flight, the Singapore girls might be skinny but are they happy and would you do that job. I wouldn't.

Hope everything goes well, and hope to see you August time

Nearly time for the off then Petra! Proof if ever there was that good things come to those that wait (now patiently, that's a different matter!)

Hope the packing is the last hurdle! Safe flight and have a nice life!
