Freedom....

Its been quite a few days since my last Blog entry, but bizarrely enough since finishing work i've been insanely busy. Wednesday was the first night in with Charli, and we ended up staying up drinking and chatting until 4am! That wouldn't have been so bad but for the fact she had a job interview in Leeds at 10.30 on Thursday morning and i was due on a train to London at 6.55am.... still, it was well worth it as we get on extremely well. I'm not stressed at all about coming back as I can imagine us being great friends and there not being any problems living together. Friday was my last day at work and it was chaos. Clearing my desk took up most of the day and I've agreed to go back in out-of-hours tonight to do some handover bits with Gail, the Office Manager. Went for a meal on Friday night with the team and had a great night, then went up to a party at a friends.

From Friday night through to Sunday it was pretty much non-stop partying. A few friends popped in on Saturday night, including Kate, Leon and Ashi, and a good night was had despite the slightly unusual atmosphere...I was encouraged again by Charli's chilled attitude to the drop-in-centre kind of way things happen at my house. A planned quiet night in with pizza's and videos to recover from the previous nights hangover ended in a full on party. If she can handle that then she'll certainly be able to deal with living in the madhouse :D

Getting my currency and travel insurance sorted out made a big difference. It's all happening now and there are only a few days until I go. It's all really exciting and terrifying. I keep thinking I must have forgotten things, but I dont think I have. Got currency, travel insurance, flight details for HK, passport, Australian ETA (Visa), had my jabs, cleared my credit cards, Accommodation in HK is sorted. I can't think what I have forgotten. Getting E111 sorted out today and also padlocks for rucksack. If anyone reads this and thinks of anything, please tell me....

just so you know, although i reckon you will have figured it out by now. There is no E111 any more it has been replaced by a medical card thet you send off for in the post. I hope you have sorted it as you will be off soon.

I'm not sure but i think it only covers you in EU countries anyway, better to get some sort of travel insurance as well.
