All My Lovely Birthday Cards Thank you guys

My Aunty Joyce

Well How stressed was I in the morning ????

Though I must say I was very very anxious.
Mum and Dad took me to Gatwick we were supposed to leave at 12 mid day but yes you guessed it the half and hr rule that I come with kicked in and instead of the usual 30 Min's turned in to and hr and we didn't set off till 1.15 but hey we got there with plenty of time to spare and even got to eat at Joe's cafe good name don't cha think ?? not sure how I managed to eat I felt really sick if I'm going to be honest.The whole day seams like a bit of a dream now but it was a very emotional day and I must say very draining.Thank you Mum and Dad for every thing you did for me right up to the point where we had to part. which I now have to tell every one was very emotional and if you ever have to do it my advice is to say good bye in the car crying at the airport is not a good look :-)Right now on to the beginning of my adventure and this may turn more in to pointers as we may be here all day otherwise.....
The Flight - After leaving mum and Dad at the airport I felt very emotional so what do you do when you feel like that.... well of course you call your rock the person who is strongest for you no matter how they are feeling inside ....Nick or as you may get to know him throught this "Mr wally" Long story I may explain some time but not right now.
bless him he is really is there for me and so supportive of me going off and getting as much from this experiance as I can, Thank you nick xx
any way back to the matter in hand oh yes the airport well what do you expect I cried again .......what a div!!!
Finally boarding at 7:40ish pm I had a 7 hr flight too Dubai where I sat next to a really lovely lady whos name was Berrel she was also traveling on her own to Sydney to see her new grandaughter ahhhhhhhhw how cute "Thats Grandma dedication for you "!!
I dont know how I would have got though that flight and airport hoping with out You Berrel also you made the journey a delight I Thank You.
