pleased that I did all the things on my earlier list. Most unusual, something generally gets left off.
I have thought of some new things
-disconnect car battery? might just leave it and hope.
-check all the windows. I'm sure they are shut but anyway
-check the fridge for dead food or things that will likely become dead
-set the alarm clock for the middle of the night.
I have had a lovely couple of days. 3 different bon voyage meals, all provided by my lovely friends, either cooked or paid for, or both I suppose. I have been lent a funky gadget that sucks data off my camera card up to (many, cant remember)gigs worth. Still might buy another card but less urgent now. I have been offered a lift to the airport, very sweet.
I have a suspicion that I don't need to be at the airport as early as I plan. The first leg seems to be domestic. I'd rather be there early than late though so will stick with plan A.
The case is packed, not full. I hope I have been restrained enough. Several kilo and cubic centimetres are taken up by hiking boots and gifts for Bro and wife. My carry-on is packed too. That is much heavier than I would like. Can't think of anything else I can take out though. I already swapped out my few toiletries for smaller versions. It is the books I think that are causing the problem. I'll just have to cope. I'm not going on the plane without a novel, the LP and a notebook.
I should go to bed soon. I'm still a bit worked up though. Ah there is a Cadfael I am part way through. That will help. Think calm thoughts montjoye.
