Im a year in and I challenge anyone to have felt as guilty as I did. And a year down the line, everyone is used to it, happy for me and getting on with their own lives.

Youre taking a step towards guilt free, happy living. Worth that horrible pain in the belly in the end x

That's very true, great words thank you x

If there is a crash or big correction then we won't be going.

Come on Kath, you have put a lot in to getting this far. Try to enjoy your last weeks here but don't forget to keep in mind why you decided to leave in the first place & think of all that lovely blue, blue sky, sun, beaches etc etc

3 weeks to go

We feel exactly the same (except the guilt part for me, the OH is full of guilt), we go the end of Jan and for me I can't wait for it to come round. Yes, spending Xmas and New Year with family will be good but I wish we'd gone earlier this year when we had the chance.

But hey-ho, we're nearly there.

Ooh you're lucky with the no guilt thing, that's my worst bit, hate the guilty feelings.

It'll soon be here for you, just a few weeks and you'll be on that plane!
