T minus 0 – we have a lift off

The housesitter is briefed. The most important task of course is to ensure that the starter for making our sourdough bread is properly cared for. Its name is Stanley the Starter and it is the ultimate in low maintenance pets and, unlike all other known pets, is useful.

We are moments away from packing. Well The G packed yesterday – a massive red suitcase full of stuff. I shall be packing an hour prior to departure. Packing is easy. You take everything you will need and lay it on the bed. You put half of it back. You pack half of what’s left. Trust me, you will still have twice as much as you need. Yes, believe it or not you can wash clothes and stuff while you’re away and you can wear the same thing twice. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1cjDdmwdV8 for how to do it properly.
This is not a good plan. Leave some stuff behind
Next stop Dubai (well it’s Sydney really but we're on the way). There will be pictures when we get there. Watch this space.
