Here I sit in Levor's office because we don't have internet access at home at the moment and we both have work to do. Levor's work consists of marking, which means my work* is interrupted by a series of grunts, bursts of laughter, chortles and exclamations. It can be quite amusing from time to time in a black kind of way.
But the news... well the news, folks, is that we have tickets! We have one way economy class tickets for 19th September with Thai Airways to fly to the UK. So, we're really going. Or, at least we'll be a lot poorer if we don't go.
Our friends, Earthmother and Lynxx (and Happy Girl) bought me the lonely planet guide to Great Britain for my birthday. I tried to look at it for a few weeks but it was a bit strange, but I've been avidly reading it since we got our tickets. There are all these cool places to go and see things and this cool museum in Oxford which was put together from the pilferings of Charles I's gardener. (I'm not sure why that appeals to me...)
So, we're going on a big aeroplane. How about that.
*Posting, btw is not 'work', just so we're clear. It's procastination.

noooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhssssssnnnooooottttttttttttffffffffaaaaaiiiiiiiirrrrrrr
and other wailings of that nature.
actually the wail was much much longer than that, it just got cut off. obviously blogger has a very low tolerance for whingeing.
though i should also say, it's extremely cool that you get to go to Oxford (and that you get to go on a big plane and don't have to go in steerage on a boat or something).
i...just...will...
[small voice]
miss you heaps.
wow. one comment per minute. do you think i should have gotten my act together and put them all in the one post?
ok i'll stop now.
Hey, all very real now. Look forward to catching up before you go one way or another.
do you REALLY need to go??
Come on people, it isn't that bad! As long as she promises to blog as often as she has been recently we can call off the armed guards at the airport preventing her departure...

Hi,
This comment is not on topic at all. It's about something important to me - namely, me.
I just wanted to say that after the 'Earthmother' saga and the 'cuddlepie' incident I am extremely pleased with Lynxx as a moniker. Two X's! Inspired!
Thank you,
LynxX

Hmmmm - I'd be relieved that this post was made before our doctrine essays were handed in... except that, should some of them up up on his desk, I'm sure that cries of dismay and 'what were they thinking?!' will join the grunting, laughing, chortles and exclamations.
Oh and by the way I agree with Bec (just too tired to wail at the moment). Anyway, surely you know about the mad cow disease over there. Do you both really want to turn into insane bovines? No. I think you'd better stay here.
Glad that is settled.
