Hello all,

Only a week to the big day. Exciting eh! Pete and Jan when do you arrive? I love the picture of your girls I would love to print it out but I'm afraid my grasp of technology means that I would print out the whole blog so I'm too chicken to try! Can't wait to see them. Ruth it's so disappointing that you have to leave so early, I begin to wonder if I will ever see more than brief snatches of you, those Conductors are such bullies, shall we come down and sort them out?Mum you can get canisters/inhalers of oxygen I think the Japanese thought they would be a good idea! but of course I don't think they like arosoles on planes, but if they are popular they may be available in airports or chemists, maybe worth investigating. Its looking like people are meeting up before the great day? We, the kids and me, have booked until Friday but they sounded very flexible, hoping that we can spend extra time with you all.I love you all.
My mobile is 0798 009 4581 but of course it only works once I leave the village.
ps I think the ode maybe 'Read and learn' Ladybird Books circa 1962.
