packing begins

Well the departure day is almost here and we've started packing. The baggage allowance is 20kgs plus about 5kgs for hand luggage. I don't really know if that's enough or not, but my current plan is to get out everything I think I need and then start throwing stuff out again if it's too heavy. Time will tell!
We had the 'last supper' tonight with Sarah - roast potatoes - we may not get them again for 8 weeks as you can't do roasties on a camping stove. On the other hand, they must eat a lot of lamb over there, so perhaps they have roasties with lamb.

Tomorrow we'll hopefully see all the bags packed and ready to go.
