I also printed off the alteration to my plane tickets, which I guess I shoulda done earlier, but I didn't want to think about that when I first got it last month. Cos it means saying goodbye. But yes, printed that off and put it in my Important Stuff pocket thingie with my passport and money in about six currencies.

What's the alteration, you ask? Welp, my father dearest decided he didn't want to get up so early to pick me up from the airport, so he's leaving me in Singapore for another HOUR AND A HALF. Because clearly a 38-hour plane journey isn't long enough, and he's doing his best to make it a nice round FORTY. So the family unit can get an extra hour in bed.

Forty hours sounds bad enough on its own, dunnit? But you don't reallly get the full impact from that. It means that I get up at, say, 7:30, 8:00, get to Manchester airport at 10-ish, take off from around midday, then Sallie goes home, lives out the rest of the day, goes to bed, wakes up, lives another day, goes to bed again, and halfway through that night, I land in Adelaide.

Thirty-eight hours, what's another one and a half, eh?

*twitchytwitch*

I want a whole bloody entourage when I land in Adelaide, thank you very bloody much ¬¬## I know from comments who's been reading this thing from Adelaide, and I know where you live~!

I'll do the Edinburgh photos, I really will. Tomrrow. Promise =D It's my journal, I'll update it when I feel like it =P

Gem rocked up today so we could go see a movie, specifically The Brothers Grimm. It was... odd. Had its moments, but yeah, odd. We found out at the end it was directed by Terry Gilliam tho, so that'd explain it. (For the uneducated, he's one of the Python bois *nods*) Had some good lines tho XD

"Sit down; you can't hold your ale."
"I can't hold my ale!!"

"He thinks it's magical! It's not magical, it's just shiny!"

None of us could really follow what was going on most of the time tho. It was odd *shrug* So then we came home and watched Madagascar, cos that's so our movie XD

And then Gem left, and there was much hugging and teeth chattering because it was bloody FREEZING and I couldn't be stuffed going up to get my jumper. But mew, that's the last time I see Gem on this trip *clings* Luffu~!

Just finished watching my last episode of QI too *wibble* I'm going to write to Foxtel, tell them they should put it on. UKTV or thecomedychannel, that'd work. QI would go down so well in Australia, it really would. I'll miss that~ =( And various other people/things/places/whatever, but we're trying not to think about that right now.

On a similar note, this is the best Guinness ad ever, and when I get home I shall save it onto my hard drive and have it forever =D
