14 days to go!

’til we finally depart these shores for the new land. Despite trying to address as many important issues as possible over the previous 4 weeks, still feels like we’re rapidly running out of time and that a tsunami of unfinished business is about to wash us away before we make it to the plane.

As we’re stopping in Dubai and Sydney on the way, going to pick up a couple of travel guides this weekend, no doubt I won’t have any time to read them until actually on the first flight of course.

Given its snowed here in UK today, checking the NZ weather report shows that Wellington is enjoying around the 20 degree celsius mark, now that’s more like it!

Breaking news! Jake’s apparently got leptospirosis (huh?) according to the animal carriers who’ve organised the dogs’ blood and poo tests. Its not a big deal, thank goodness, and probably just picked up in his blood test because of the residual deliberate dose he got in his recent vaccine booster: he’ll just need antibiotic injections for five days once they’re at the carriers in Shropshire. Molly and Tilly both fine, typical perfect females…
