Not Much Longer??

I am on the last bits of packing.
It is getting colder as snow sweeps down from Russia, will probably hit S&G on Sunday. Hope it doesn't delay our departure on Tuesday for the big flight. We stop for 1hour and 15mins in Dubai for refuelling so will get to see the airport as I think it will be dark when we land.
Had my last yoga class last night, I found it hard to concentrate. Did my last Aqua class today with 20mins lane swimming so have finished my fitness routine until we get to Brunei, I think there are 8 pools and a gym on the complex.

David Attenborough is doing a series on Darwinism whilst we are away. He said he was talking to students about fossils at a mid western university USA and the students looked bored and one said we don't believe in all that stuff. David said he felt sad that they had such closed minds and that they were really brainwashed from such a young age that they had lost the skill of questioning.
Good news, the Aussie dollar dropped to 2.03 to the pound 2 weeks ago, it is now back up to 2.24, whoopee.
Am sooooo excited, can't think of anything else to say.


Oh Fuad, we have 4 Lords taking loadsa money from businesses to change how laws are made in the House of Lords so you don't have all the corrupt politicians. We didn't vote for these men either and they still have their titles and even more embarassing they are all labour lords who in their defence said they hadn't done anything wrong??? which then begs the question how many more are doing it or have done it?

Afternoon all. Not sure where I will blog from next.
