36 Sleeps.....25 more work days...

Ever thrown a party and had that last minute panic a few moments before the official start time that no one will show up??? We'll that's what we feel each week when we hold an open inspection at our house. But in our case...no one does show up.

So, it's Thursday again and we've spruced the house up. Hopefully tonight we get a few nibbles.

On a more positive note, we have accommodation for the first 10 days in NY sorted. East Village here we come!

My work situation seems to be moving forward with a lovely moustache wearing hepatologist keen to take me on. Now, to work out the finer details like who will do my job while I'm gone.....

The countdown has begun...

50 days to take-off and things are starting to heat up.

Got a great deal on the flights but have to fly United “thrift” class – I’m not sure what that means but I’m worried. I note staff at a Japanese airport found a guy stuck under the wheel carriage of a Delta plane the other day (dead). I'm hoping that isn't “thrift class”.

Other than that....
No job
No one to rent our house
No place to stay when we get there...

Hmmm....me thinks we better start getting organised!
