Tomorrow I’m off. I’ve got the schedules for the tour of the US (some details to be finalised) and UK. WORLDSHAKER goes global! I fly Pacific Air to Los Angeles, then Icelandair to the London two weeks later. (Ulp! Who booked their air ticket before the volcano started playing up?)
In other stuff-ups, the weekend trains to the airport which are normally so handy for me are afflicted with trackwork, so Aileen will drive me in instead.
Aileen’s birthday falls round about the time when I’m travelling from New York to London, so we’ll be do birthday dinner out and birthday presents tonight. I’m trusting that nothing desperately last-minute-y comes up, because there won’t be any time much tomorrow morning.
Here’s a photo of my suitcase. Looks so small and innocent, doesn’t it? But it weighs a ton – exactly 23 kilos now.
Wish me luck! This should be fun!
I’ll be blogging on http://richardharland.wordpress.com
Cheers
Richard
