So it's nearly time...

posted by [personal profile] katherine_b at 11:29am on 27/06/2009 under
In twelve hours or so I shall board a plane and head for the other side of the world. At this point I've haven't been reduced to a squealing mass, most likely because my voice is still very dodgy and I can't squeal. However I do have little nervous butterflies. God only knows why as I've done this flight five times before so I can't really be nervous about it.

To those I'm going to see, can't wait to catch up! To those who I'm leaving behind - I hope it's not too cold for you all. (Yes, I am horrible, I know.)

See you all on the other side!

ETA: Excuse me if, as an Aussie, I piss myself laughing over this. Oh. Dear. Two days over 30 degrees. Whatever shall I do. *snerk*

BTW, I am aware that this is a Bad Thing for English people. But really - after three consecutive days over 40 degrees last summer, I'm afraid I can't take two days over 30 the way I probably should.

You note that the 2 days in the high 80s (I can't count in centigrade!) are going to be Monday and Tuesday, when we'll all be stuck in work :-(.

Hey, this is England - if it gets over 70 then you start seeing people wandering along main roads in their shorts!

Have a great time :-).

I do still enjoy the "HEATWAVE WE WILL ALL SUFFER IN TEMPS OF....28 degrees" headlines. Because, no.

I will allow though that the Tube is a ghastly nightmare of hot in summer, though.

Have a fab time!

*is close to melting in 21 C today* Do not mock us northerners, we're not equipped for heat! :)

Hope you have a good time!

Lol *is comment jumping* I still remember a comment you left to me about it being 15 and you were loving it because you had no socks on. In 15 C, i have a woolen jumper on. And probably two pairs of socks. In 10C i switch on as many heaters as we own. And you can mock that all you like - this southerner is as bad at dealing with the cold as you are with heat. :D

You wait til you get on the tube, you won't be laughing then! We only hate it because we're woefully inequipped to cope with it. Air con, what's that then? ;)

See you in a few days!

I know I said this (or equivalent) on the phone, but travel well, Liebste. And if it comes up, let Ruth know that I'm either puzzling over the ending or going on to a line-by-line edit of Ch. 4...

I wish i had done that flight five times. Fly safe.

Also - *snort* I'm sorry Brits on KB's flist but that's amusing. ON the day i was born, it was 39. The day i went home from hospital was 37 and until i was about two months old, Mum tells me i didn't experience a day where the temperature wasn't over 30. And i turned out ok. ;)

Seriously though, that's why i could never live permanently in the UK. By the end of July here, i am Snarky McBitch from the weather being under 20 degrees for too long. I'd go completely loco if i had to live with the usual Northern Hemisphere weather patterns.

If you were a fair skinned Brit you wouldn't be laughing at 30 degrees. Mind you I'll bet you are like teh Sydneysider who stayed and put her hat and gloves on because it was 10 degrees out. That barely requires a sweater in teh UK.
