hungover packing

Having shipped the mayhem creators off to Grandma's so we can really get down to packing, we totally blew it by going out last night, drinking a lot of wine and beer, getting back home at 3am and then not getting up until 11. It has to be said that being hungover is a lot easier when you don't have children around, but extremely bad for packing productivity. Worth every pounding of the head though, as it has been a long time since D and I went out together to a pub with mates and we really had such fun.

Not having the little angels around on a Sunday morning also allowed me to indulge in my favourite radio activities. Actually listening to The Archers Omnibus, followed by Desert Island Discs and then I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue on Radio 4 is one of life's great pleasures. It certainly helped the hungover packing to be a little less excrutiating.

Knowing that I become more English as soon as I leave these shores, I am comforted by the thought that through the wonders of technology, I'll still be able to keep up with the events in Ambridge listening online.

I'm so proud of you! Out drinkin up a storm. Glad to know it isn't only when I arrive from Sudan that you and D throw down.

Big hugs, good luck with the final push!
