Never too early :thumbup: I do it each year, start the countdown to the next UK trip as soon as I get back - gives me something to aim for! :rolleyes:

Re: What is the appropriate time frame for a countdown?
 

Good lord, I start at 99 which is what my pda allows. 16 is almost tomorrow!!!! For me it is 18!

Oh dear, sorry, just my mind going a zillion miles an hour.

Triboy has 16 (now 15) more get ups before he leaves Aus. I have 18 (well 17 now as I have just got up today!) before I leave - but just for a holiday unfortunately.

Usually I set my pda (Palm diary thingie) to count down the days for me so that when I look at the calendar every day I know how many more get ups I have before I can get on the plane and leave for my sanity hit. My palm will count down from 99 days (because it is a useful little gadget). For times longer than the 99 days, I actually go with the "haircut" and "haircut and colour" schedule as well!!!

Oohhh arrrgghhh I be from Frome via Wollongong and Liverpool :thumbup:

Re: What is the appropriate time frame for a countdown?
 

Frome is somewhere I don't know that much about. Been there a few times but mostly through it. Went there on my last trip home as we did the Xmas food shopping at Asda.

I wanted to go to Waitrose in Bath but my parents gave me that 'you're no son of ours, where did we go so wrong' kind of look.:lol:

Re: What is the appropriate time frame for a countdown?
 

Small world - family live just outside Bristol now, I was born near Glastonbury, and my Mum has spent most of her life in Frome - grew up there, and moved back there for several years when we all left home. :blink:
