If you don't know or are new here you wont know that on Wednesday I'm going on holiday This is my first holiday abroad since my mid teens because marriage, kids , divorce and all that meant I hadn't ventured out of the country. So after having booked my celebratory I'm 50 this year holiday last September and then finally in the last month finishing paying for. the Airbnb as well as getting my passport sorted in February we are at the final steps of getting things done. I've had to put a list together of what's to be done so here is where I am today. Airport parking - after months of me stressing about this J has sorted it for loads cheaper than I though he would and this is now done. Window seat - this is my first ever flight so we've paid extra and booked a window seat for me. It does turn out that we are mostly flying over the sea but I guess there'll be a kind of view. Travel insurance - EHIC card sorted and individual insurance is being done today....
