Aww Mel, I'm super proud of you! We've come so far since meeting up as blubbering wrecks last year!

Can't wait to read more... x

Hey Mel, I have only just caught up with your situation as I have only been dipping in and out of the Dibb to selfishly only consider my own questions and not keep up with peoples lives.

I am so sad to hear about things but want to say I am so impressed by your grit and determination to start creating your own memories, I have only read this day of your trippie so far and without wanting to sound patronising, I am so proud of you being able to do this trip and appreciate how hard it must have been.

I want to wish you all the best and say you are an inspiration to others by what you have achieved. Go Girlie, here is a Cyber High Five.

Jo

I didn't think of ot like that - I definitely got off lightly!

Yep, my reputation obviously went ahead of me

I'm surprised you didn't break open the prosecco at the security gate and start glugging it down - I think I would have been tempted...
Maybe next time...

Loved reading it and will be reading the rest too
Thank you - you have hit the nail on the head, this trip really does seem to have closed the door on that chapter of my life and given me the energy to start a new one

The GF lounge sounds amazing!
Thank you - and the GF lounge is fab!

Yes there are smiles in the days ahead

I am actually relieved re the Prosecco as I thought it might have exploded in your suitcase !

Emma
Thank you - I'm so touched by everyone's good wishes and support

The day certainly had its highs and lows, but the trip got easier day by day

Thank Lou - it seems such a long time since that meet. Still can't quite believe I met up to offer you support and ended up crying all over you! Looking forward to catching up soon - good to see you back on here

Good on you for getting through the first day! My sister has gone through a similar break up recently so I can imagine how hard it was! It's strange that by listening to the Dibbcast for so long l feel that I know the team and really care about you all! Hope you have a fab rest of the trip and a fab new beginning to all the future adventures in store for you

Hope your sister's doing ok - it's one of the hardest things I've been through, but coming out the other side now this trip really was the start of a new me!

A lovely day with some emotional hurdles. Thank you for sharing. Thought you were going to have the prosecco confiscated for a minute, thank goodness you got to keep it haha! Golden Forrest sounds like it's well worth the extra. Looking forward to reading the rest x
