Well here I am, Terminal 3 departure lounge, awaiting to board my 20:15 flight on an A380 to South East Asia - aka 'trip of a lifetime' or so I'm told. To say I'm a touch nervous is perhaps an understatement, as the title suggests I'm positively s******g my pants. Lots going around through my head, mostly 'Live While We're Young - One Direction'. This is not an attempt to be all poignant and Carpe Diem like, simply because it's been the demand of my Harry loving niece for the past 48 hours....but perhaps it is indeed subconsciously poignant? Other than that, my thoughts are a heady mix of fond memories of those I will sorely miss during my trip (albeit 3 and a bit months) and nervous excitement about the things to come in less than 24 hours and all the people ill meet.
But fear not, I'm not going COMPLETELY alone, you'll notice that I will be accompanied by my new partner in crime; allow me to introduce George the Bear. Chucked at me by my Dad (for reasons too long to explain at the moment, or save yourself Hey time, indulge your curiosity and go to www.gardlinebear.co.uk/), George will be with me every step of the way (perhaps not the notorious ping pong shows) so keep your eyes peeled for some staged photos in random places!
Anyways, need to make a couple more phone calls then get on this big ass plane to Thailand! Until I land, bon voyage boys and girls!
