Less than 2 weeks to go now and today I made sure that global roaming was activated on my phone, which leaves only a couple of details left to take care of. One of which is our Wi-Fi internet connection for the UK. We’re going to use BT who offer a 30 day plan for a very reasonable cost and that means we have no worries about having to find somewhere to connect; we just have to be within a 100 metre range of a BT hotspot. The last detail is to get some cash in pounds but than can wait till next week. A quick trip to Travelex is all that takes.

I have booked the car for an extra day so we don’t have a whole day spent cooling our heels in the hotel at Heathrow waiting for our flight. Now we can go somewhere in the morning, take the car back in the afternoon and catch the shuttle transfer to the airport. Can’t wait!
