May the lords of immunity grant my wish

Ok, boys and girls and those of other non specific denominations, in a few hours [info]kayos65 and I will be heading off on our UK/Canadian odyssey of what will hopefully be awesomeness (and lacking in disease, accident, terrorist activity, plague, famine, or visits to expensive foreign emergency departments).

The kitties have been saved from prison by the combined good will and paid efforts of my dearest [info]wivern and a nice little girl from the Lonely Pets Club. Two visits a day with attention and food and playtime will hopefully tide them over the week between full time house carers. *hugs to wivern for being the bestest*

Our bags are just about packed, the supply of Australian sugar rich treats has been upped to hopefully cater for all needs, and we have two tubes of vegemite - one of which is promised to Miss S in Vancouver, but the other one will be up for grabs (if I don't decide I desperately need a vegemite fix at some point in the trip).

The next five weeks will either see a rash of posts (assuming Kayos' iphone works with a foreign sim now that it's been hacked to death) or intermittent posting during the evenings from the venues that do supply internet access.

And to see us off, Melbourne decided to jump straight from early spring to mid summer today - there were people walking around in singlets and shorts, and it's been windy. I'm blaming that for my sore throat and runny nose. *glares at body*

The forecast in Singapore for tomorrow is hideous - about a bazillion percent humidity, windy, and possible monsoonal storms. And did I mention hot? >.>

Thence to London - where hopefully it will not rain every day - one day of sunshine in four or five of rain should see me clear, and a sightseeing list o'd00m as well as some extremely looked-forward-to meetups.

Ok, I guess that's it from me for now. If you are seriously interested in hearing about our travels, do let me know, and I will do the rest of the world the courtesy of setting up a filter.

*bounces* SAFE TRIP!! See you soon!
