And they're off!
 
Last day today, staying in a hotel tonight then flying out tomorrow. Wow. :eek:

There have been lots of parties and goodbyes over the past week, it's been more emotional than any of us could have guessed. People have been so kind, some lovely things have been said and done for us, and we're all extremely grateful.

The house is in a state of organised chaos. OK, not so organised. It'll all fall into place though so I'm not worried. We're swinging between giddy panic and manic excitement now, we just can't wait to get going.

Will be off line after today, but will be in touch as soon as we can.
