Less than a week left and still so much to do. I still have a few days in Europe to arrange accommodation for, and I am now really beginning to run out of time.
I did however get the suitcase out today. Not sure how airlines expect us to all fly with one suitcase of 20kgs when the lightest suitcase we have empty weights 5kgs. How do I fit a months worth of winter type clothing and have room for spending while over there?? I so miss the days of having 2 bags of 23kg's when going through the USA, bring it back I say!!!
I have been keeping an eye on the weather and it would seem it is going to be a little cold while we are in Europe. Here's hoping not too much rain though.
Well for me I am getting pretty excited, not sure how much work will be done on Friday itself, but as long as I get everything done by Wednesday/Thursday I should be all good. This week is going to be gone in a flash, I have both my parent's birthday this week, hair appointments, gym, here's hoping I haven't forgotten anything!

Mike's 40th - Europe here we come
For a few years now I have been playing around with the idea of taking Mike to Europe for his 40th. Some years ago he had seen this Top Gear with Jeremy Clarkson on the Nürburgring and ever since then it has been something I thought he would love to do that for his 40th.
Well it is all arranged!!! On the 17th of October we will be spending the morning on the Nürburgring in a spec'd up 5 series BMW. We are also spending some time driving around Europe for 11 days. So for the month of October we will be seeing 8 countries in 30 days, most of which is in Europe. So keep watching this blog for all the trip excitement. Loads of actives planned already, Eurostar, car factories, autobahns, belgium waffles, beer halls, and more.
