Well it's just a few days till I go. Today I need to make sure that all the packing is done. The good news is that I've heard from my contact in Abu Dhabi, I have a hotel, I have a taxi, I have somewhere to work also, so all is starting to look promising.
Tomorrow it's down to Heathrow ready to fly on Thursday morning. Tomorrow is when the panic will really set in.
Tonight I have the fun of trying to make sure I've actually remembered to pack everything, and not packed things I do not need ever! The 22kg limit should focus the mind. Then there is the fun of what goes in the hold and what with me. Do I take a chance on everything getting there in one piece...
I'm afraid that whilst I enjoy travelling and enjoy seeing new places I am awful at actually going there - I'm not a good flyer, and I'm most definitely not a good "travelling light" person.
