    Barbados

    Well tomorrow is my last working day before holiday - truthfully I am going to log out at about 2.30 so we can get to Heathrow to get a coach to Gatwick at 4.20 (or thereabouts) where we will check in the Hilton for the night. I have done all of my packing and the "domestic" packing which means as we are going self catering I have washing up,liquid, washing liquid, salt and pepper grinders, tea towels, dish cloths, kitchen roll etc. I have also packed all the medication (husband has a lot) a travel iron (yes I do sometimes iron on holiday but only if forced).

    All that needs to happen is is for husband to put his toiletries and clothes/shoes in and get some money. Debating whether to do American dollars at the moment the way things are, they went up yesterday but didn't have time to get any, gone down today but it cannot be that much to make a difference.

    So looking forward to going away although we are likely not to get club class this time but world traveller plus which is between club and economy. The loads are not looking great but we have only paid £240 for both of us so cannot complain,

    Will send pictures as and when I can...... xx

            Zizi - have a really wonderful time. Relax, enjoy seeing your Bajan friends and I don't want to see any pictures where you haven't got a glass (suitably filled) in your hand. Safe journey. xx

              Safe journey to you both. Hoping you relax & can leave everything behind that was stressing you out.

                      We went to get the dollars this morning and I said to him "are you actually going to pack anything or do I have to do it?" His response was that he will get to it when he gets to it. He has just done it and closed the cases. Didn't think we would get everything in as am taking Christmas presents for the little people but it is all in.

                      Oh and I found my missing rings as well. Yes they were in a very safe place and no I have no idea why I put them there except as husband suggests because we had so many different work people in maybe I had a suspicious moment and decided to hide them! I am pleased I found them. 😬

                          Zizi - so pleased you found your rings. All set now for a great holiday, apart from the rain. But it will be nice warm rain and soon clear up I'm sure.

                            Well in the hotel but husband went over to check in today as flights unconfirmed and it is not looking good. A Costa Rica flight went technical yesterday and they think our flight might be full. Oh well, one more night at Gatwick. This will only be the second time in 16 years we won't have got on and we have only paid £240 for the two tickets so cannot complain. I will let you know.......

                            Hilton by Garden at Gatwick is OK, rooms are nice but the food isn't to be honest, very basic but it doesn't really matter.
