We’re up and off
A 4am start isn’t a natural thing. But we’re up, and the taxi to the airport is due in 45 minutes. I don’t feel like I’ve had any sleep at all. Gaaaaah!

A Brief Interruption of Service
Nelefa.org will drop off the net for a while on Monday evening – both the website and email will be unavailable. Poor old jem, the box we host on, is undergoing some disk surgery by the highly trained secret ninja administrators of the Yoyo collective consciousness. But it’ll all be fine by tomorrow. Which is
Bumpy Ride
Theres no time for tears – they ll come later when we look at pictures of our friends and family once the journey is over – we have had to be strong for the sake of the kids cos kids are very perceptive!. Theres been quite a few moments when Ive had them but Ive
Packing
Oh God, make it end soon. We’ve been packing for what seems like days. We have a baggage allowance of 20Kg each. There are five of us. That’s a tenth of a metric ton of luggage. No problem, right? Wrong – we seem to have twice that amount of rubbish kicking around. We’re filling case

42 All-time Classics (Nintendo DS)
What an Ace little cartridge! It has card games, board games, bowling, darts – it’s just ace! I forgot how much I like Rummy 🙂 It’s also multiplayer with a single cart and even has 7-player online multiplayer. Not only that, but it’s only twenty quid. That’s forty-odd P a game – not to be
World of Warcraft (PC)
I have too many characters. It’s official. I’ve been having a blast with ol’ Pooky recently. I got him over the horrible hump of the early twenties. It seems to be a bit of a rough spot with mages – not enough damage to attack anything higher than green and groups are hard to come
