Post Why don't I have anything to do??

I leave for the airport in 74 hours (not that I'm counting )and yet am sat around quite bored!! Don't like being unemployed much, noone around and nowt to do.... been the gym, had my haircut, chased up the bank, can't pack yet as its just clothes and I'll probably want to wear some of them!!

I think I've got everthing covered, but if anyone can think of anything a bit unusual I'd be grateful to hear!!

You said your goodbyes yet?

See some friends.

See some of your favourite places, as this is your last chance.

Hey Sue/Andiii


I am peeing them, dont you worry


I know I should go out and see some places, but to be honest I am sick of thinking 'this is the last time I will see this person/place for ages'
I've said goodbye to all my family apart from my parents and brother last weekend. I'm off out tomorrow night with all my friends and everyone is at work during the day anyway.

I really do think I'm just going to sit around and wait now... perhaps not in front of the PC though... there's gotta be something. Hasn't there!!?!

You could always come round here and do my ironing for me. We are off on holiday on Monday, one load is on the line, one has just finished in the washing machine. Girls are watching tele and not tidying their room . I have just finished washing the floors and whilst drying am on here. But as I say, the ironing needs doing and the packing so if you've nothing better...........

Chill out, enjoy the rare feeling of having nothing nagging at your conscience, prepare yourself mentally for the ramp back up to manic activity at the other end. Make the most of the lull, you may never get another one!

Alternatively go to some of your least favourite places and think smugly to yourself that you won't have to go there again.

Hey mlbonner!

I didn't realise you've got 74 hours left! Bloody hell ! Well I have to say I'd rather be bored than be rushing around like a mad thing. It's called excellent planning! I hope I'm also bored when I have 74 hours left!

It's so nice outside you should get your last fix of English countryside!

Good luck!

Sounds REALLY REALLY REALLY tempting, but I just don't think I can get down there in time



I've been out of a bit and have come home now to rest myself for this evening (going out in the local town) and then the BIG party night tomorrow night.
Never mind my luggage, what with the drinking, Weds night chinese, Thurs night curry and Sunday night dinner we have planned I'm going to need extra weight allowance!
