Hi Hot and Spicy. How are things going with your Corfu holiday plans?  When do you go?  Not sure if you already posted that?  Having a rare glimpse of the sun this week, I amb so in the mood for a couple of weeks in the sunshine.

Hope all going well.

Hey firewalker I head off on the 22nd - four weeks on fri - eek! I think I am still pretty excited about it and have started sunning myself in the garden so I don't look like a milk bottle on the beach! I am struggling tho cause I am finding it difficult to go out on my own just now (think this is a bad week as I have pmt!) so I don't understand how I think I will manage Corfu - there seems to be no logic to my insanity! 

However yesterday I bought two tops - still no bikini so far but I am persevering to find one. Still jogging in the hope a miracle will happen and my wobbly bits will be more toned - not that optimistic but am defo a try-er!

The sun here has defo made a difference the last few days hasn't it? Thanks for asking. No doubt the jitters will rear their ugly head soon enough. Xx

Susan's right H&S, there will be other women there who have far more wobbly bits than you do, get that bikini and enjoy

By-pass the bikini and go naked

Well if i am right its a week tomorrow for till we go. I keep having anxiety when i think about it but i really want to go so heres hopeing that i do.

Hot&spicy  Thinking of you i know how you feel. Been trying to get a bit of sun on me too, though you have much more of a chance of the sun than me, knowing my luck this brief spell of sunshine will break just as we go.

a week tomorrow I go away too and I'm dreading it. 12 hour flight (to South Africa), then to stay with OH's family who are always fighting. OH is exhausted from 14+ hour days prior to leaving, to get some report finished for work, then he will go straight into that. Last thing he needs but we need to see his elderly dad.
Then we go to stay with my brother and have loads of admin to do for a week down in Cape Town.
The flight's an ordeal as don't sleep a wink, but is bearable if there's a great holiday at the end of it.

I'm only going to the Isle of wight   At least you know when you get there you will be fine, for me its not knowing and well if i have anxiety here its not going to suddenly go and let me have a lovely hoilday

At least on the Isle of Wight the water's the same

SA beautiful Country. Would love to visit there 

[oldsheep]

Yes Cape Town is nice, although will be winter and rainy. But where OH's family live is a mining area with choking coal fumes. Can't even go for a walk. Not on the tourist trail!

We are off to Spain on Tuesday and I'm panicking big time. Although we are going to our friends' villa again, everything to do with the travelling is different.

We usually get a lift to the airport........we are driving there
We have Meet and Greet so have to find the man who will take and park our car for the duration
We are flying from a different airport
At the other end, we are using a different car hire company and have to go to a meeting point, get on a minibus and pick up the car from a depot, then find our way from the depot back onto the motorway
And then the same in reverse coming back

Why do I insist on worrying in advance about what could go wrong. It's so pointless isn't it? What can it possibly achieve and in fact nothing might go wrong and I could have saved myself the churning stomach over the past week.

To all who are going away have a great trip
Its just the getting there thats the problem
I hate flying with a passion yet I still fly
I come from Ozz to UK every 18mnths or so and for 3 months or so before I come home Im a wreck
I have got to the point where Ive said the morning of departure Im not going needless to say I do
9 times out of 10 its just me on the plane for 24hrs and IM like a deer in headlights
But I always go I console myself with the thought that the guy flying the plane wants to get home as much as I do
Ive tried drink that just made me sick as a dog amd long haul flights lavvies are yuk after 3 hrs
Ive tried sleeping pills useless Diazapam I took 10mg Valium once and I was a mess didnt know where I was
Or doing there I started crying PLANES GOING TO CRASH one good thing I got put up to 1st Class not that I cared
But when you get there its fab well worth the  all the panic for me its never lessened its still the same
Bobbles says its courage that gets me on the plane HE says anyone who does something they are really terrified off
Well then they are couragous I Love my Bobbles FK IM flying next year IM worried already
MY destination is a retn trip to Paris Venice Rome and Home to Wallasey cant wait but Im still scared 16months out
