Beginning with the fretting.... 10 days to go. My bags have been packed since March. And repacked. And repacked. x6. Truly. I am finding a precarious balance between anxiety and overwhelming excitement. There have been a number of challenges so far... visa application, finances (an ongoing saga), what to wear in London summer? and LUGGAGE RESTRICTIONS. I can only fit eight pairs of shoes.
And there have been joyful surprises also, such as receiving a $3000 grant from Arts Queensland (thank you Arts QLD!!) and discovering in British Airways fineprint that they will still accept up to 30kgs of baggage until 30th September 2007. I have printed this out as proof in case my miniature travelling wardrobe comes into dispute at check-in.
My most glaringly obvious, grand achievement of the past month (aside from minimising clothing essentials) is this great conquering of technology. I know some of you will appreciate what an impressive feat this is for me. Not only have i created a blogspot -who would ever have thought?- but i have also put a PHOTO on it (significant triumph) AND some video-you-tube thingys. AND links to other sites. AND i changed some colours and fonts on the template.
AND... Yes, it took me all month.

Oops! I meant boy, not bog. I wasn't trying to be funny.
