I'm not keen on unpacking properly when we get there either - we normally just get the toiletries out and pyjamas, then unpack the next morning when we're up at some ungodly hour!

Hi jocat

You must have a go at writing a trip report, it lovely to get nice comments from people but more importantly, it keeps your holiday alive and always nice to go back and have a read!

You sound like me on travel day, checking for the passports and too nervy to even join in a conversation. We had a Bon Voyage on the way to the airport too, it brought a lump to my throat and a tear to my eye. I'd give absolutely anything to go back to that moment right now. Hard to think it was almost an entire year ago

Well done for enduring the flight

Lovely to see your adorable children again - such sweethearts.

Looking forward to more when you have a minute or two

See more...

Hellooooo

I knew you'd be tapping your watch

I'm here! Just don't hold your breath for day 1, but I promise it will be soon!

I can't believe yours was over a year ago . Have a re read of your trippie to cheer you up

Glad i'm not the only one who panics over getting on the flight etc - I really do fret and am definately a glass half empty kinda person as I'm convinced I'll fall at the last hurdle and be sent packing ... literally !

Hi, we do sound alike! Youre right, it's that last hurdle that gets me... convinced they will think I'm a drug smuggler!

Phew, I read Travel Day with a slight feeling of apprehension, as I loathe it almost as much as you do, but everything seemed to go well and without a hitch, just a shame about Virgin's shabby aircraft (I'm keeping my fingers crossed that we might get a new one in a few weeks, but I'm not getting my hopes up! ).

Great to see Noah and Emmie jumping into the pool again, it's like you never left!

Hope you've all enjoyed a lovely summer break and that Emmie's first day at school went well. Is Noah now in Juniors?

Can't wait for Day 1!

Take care.

H Kate, how are you and your lovely family?

Wow, not long now for you! I must catch up with your pre trippie, I have had a bit of the Florida blues so not been Dibbing much!

I will snap out of it very soon!

Noah is now in juniors! And not too impressed but slowly getting there! Emmie has just stareted school and is looking mighty grown up, tomorrow is my first proper day off work with a childless home so I MAY get on with day 1!

He the girls have settled back into school

Sophie xx
