Already bought most of mine at $1.50 but still have a few more $$ to get so great to see the blue again

Look at your ticker! Can't believe you only have a week to go.

I know!! Am getting round to all the preparation now - had a panic yesterday when I couldn't find my paper driving license (even though I've never been asked for it before at car hire - I just know that if I didn't have it they would ask for it!!) but the missus eventually found it for me (in a file that I'd already searched through, twice ).

For some odd reason though, I'm getting 'less excited' the nearer it gets to departure - I think I like the planning when it still seems miles away

Sure that'll change come Wednesday night when I can't get to sleep (anyone remember those old WDW adverts )

Oh dear!

I'm exactly the same.

What? Luke panic? I don't believe that. Not the same Luke who slept through the first few weeks of his ADR window while we all worried and fretted ......... and then eventually, when it suited him, casually booked them

It is so funny to think that was 6 months ago! Do you pack the night before too Luke? (That is not a criticism - I do it!)

Pack?? You think DW would trust me to pack??!!

 

[2Tiggies]

Pack?? You think DW would trust me to pack??!!

Why not? Those who don't fret are less likely to leave something behind. I don't think I have ever forgotten something. Tell her I recommend your character type as a first class packer. Unless it means you miss something good on telly while packing, in which case it would be better for her to pack. I have to do the packing. My other alternative is leaving it to my 8 year old daughter.

 

[luke]

I might not fret, but I sure do forget/misplace/lose far too much!!

My lack of fretting in fact, often costs me money - if DW hadn't have found my paper license I would have just got a replacement (I'd already rang the DVLA to find out if it would arrive in time - which it would have), which would have been the second time, as I also couldn't find it when we went in 2007, when I DID have to buy the replacement

No, I think I'm safer leaving the packing etc to her - after all, I've done all the planning

Exactly same for me Luke, I am not allowed near the cases when the lid is open, I am allowed to carry them around though

Yep, I'll be in charge of 'lugging' no doubt, while DW swans around with her new pink Radley rucksack

well as a A type packer i find these comments dead funny

as for letting the kids pack, id end up with 3 v large teddies (a whale, a stitch and a polar beer) 300 hair accessories, hair gel and an electric toothbrush (josh, my asd son is obsessed with his new "toy")
if i was lucky they might add a few tshirts, swim suit each...and a comb

Now that's funny. My DD is a very meticulous packer. Going away for two nights on Sunday with my parents and she has been wanting to pack for weeks. She has a list .... and she has everything on it! A bit more than I would pack, but then left to my own devices I pack fairly light (well pre-kids anyway).

However going to tennis, ballet or swimming it is up to me to make sure I have the bag and it is packed with the necessary items. I have spotted her on the way up the road to school in the mornings occasionally without her school bag Packed lunch, yes!

That is sooooooooooooo spooky, I have been planning for a year and loved every minute of it. The last week, not excited, just nervous and stressed out - also lack of sleep but think that is because of the flying
