Can;t believe how quick the time is going though. To make matters worse my sister who I am very close to is due a baby on 28th August - just hope she has it before we go. But not sure if that will make it even harder! In fact at this moment in time not sure I will even be able to get on the flight!! let me know how it goes telling everyone - and I will let you know first hand what the good bye was like in September but I am sure it will be bloody awful!
