All set

Bag is pretty much packed, London riots have been avoided and I'm tidying up a few final bits...

Curiously, my watch strap fell apart earlier, so I am wondering if this is an invitation to not get too time-bound in my approach to my trip...?

Emotional saying bye to the FF boys earlier.  What a bunch of top blokes!

Thanks to all of you who came to the Thursday and Sunday pre-going away sessions.  Fab occasions...highlights of the first included hearing about Lucy Moses locking herself out of her flat and then smashing a huge flowerpot on her way to breaking into one of her windows, nearly going on a carousel (no, not the alternative to the progression model for FF session design but a geniune Southbank horse-merry-go-round) but between us not having the guts to be seen on there, Rob Darbyshire turning up who I haven't seen for years and riding Alex Hands and I around central London in his 1951 landrover...highlights of the second include an awesome montage (thanks Pete), and awesome photo book (thanks Jon, Mary Daniels and others for cool comments), a lovely gathering of people (thanks all who came), and a cool bit of salsa to end the evening (thanks the Bustamante clan)...

If you want to see the cool montage they put together, have a look here:

Thanks for all the memories!

Now time for some sleep...
