The Boy's Grandpa finally succumbed to lung problems. That would have been the bullets he took in Aden  noooo:

My Father served in Aden. I was a youngster at the time he bought me back a lovely camel skin bag with pictures of camels on it and tassels and a red leather draw string and a pocket and everything i can see it quite clearly in my mind eye now. redface:

Today I will mostly be recovering from yesterdays visitation. surrender:

I had one and it was totally different to any other leather.

Today I shall be putting all affairs in order against my going on Holiday next week.
(Still reading too much Pepys methinks!)

All is nearly ready.
Lists compiled, lost and re-written only to find originals "in a safe place".
Ferry Tickets ✓
Passports and all car docs ✓
European Health Cards ✓
Reflective vests for all passengers in car ✓
Set of spare bulbs for car ✓
Warning Triangle ✓
Car Fire extinguisher ✓
First aid box in car ✓
Adaptors for electrical appliances ✓
Clothing for all washed, ironed and stacked in bedroom ready to pack ✓
Car serviced and continental breakdown cover in place ✓
Arrangements made for neighbour to clear post box daily ✓
Hotel booking confirmation and key code to let us in ✓
Euros obtained ✓
Credit & Debit card providers informed so they don't "stop" a card due to "Unusual spending pattern" ✓
Mobile phone service provider informed to ensure ditto ✓

 rubschin: Must have forgotten something. Three days to remember what is is.

It's like moving a frigging regiment!

Whatever happened to the carefree days when I grabbed a change of underwear, a passport and went?  noooo:

Dont forget to take the car...

I did mention, as I accumulated all the bits needed to drive on the continent that perhaps a CD sticker might be a good idea ...... then had to explain to the helpful little boys that I could not drive with a cover from a Rock and Roll CD taped to the windscreen.  doh:


CD means different things nowadays I suppose.

I have spent the entire afternoon at the Village Hall waiting for the Water Board to arrive on a promised 4 hour emergency call out. They did not arrive  evil:
