You still around?
Have booked flights and hotel! Will be leaving Xmas day
![EEK!](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif)
Have had a really emotional 2 days saying goodbyes - it is so horrible thinking that there are people you are close to that you might never see again..
Can't explain the emotions I am feeling at the moment - mixed bag definitely.

Just saw your post pop up! OMG how come you are flying on Xmas day, couldn't you face the MIL's turkey?
Hope the goodbyes aren't too bad.

M&S in Llanishen was gridlocked yesterday. Someone told me their friend was stuck in the carpark for 2 hours.
![EEK!](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif)
Has the house sale gone through? Are you packed? Why are you flying on Xmas day? Have you heard from either job??? Where are you flying TO??
Hope all the emotional trauma is over soon.

Sounds like a good plan to stay at your cousins if there is no room. Let the kids and Dunc spend some time with their Nana.
Kids with me - Dunc not home until tomorrow........

Hope that you have a good Christmas on the plane - are you flying from Heathrow? Have you got a hotel in Sydney now? I can't keep up.

Have you got time to pack up a couple of cases for an excess baggage company?? Leave them with your cousin and get her to send them when you have an address???? Or chuck out all the cheap clothes which would be easy to replace??

Flying Singapore airlines from Heathrow so should have 40kgs each - have emailed to confirm!!!! We won't go over the weight it is just the case of getting all the luggage to Heathrow! I have hired an estate as couldn't get a MPV - my sis and MIL say they are coming to say goodbye so will bring some luggage! Just don't know what we will do with it all in Sydney. We arrive 7am on 27th.....
Will be shattered no doubt as I can never sleep on the plane... Lyd has earache too so will be a nasty flight for her - bless
