"I'm ready for the good times"

Tomorrow I am away skipping on my holidays!

Although 'skipping' may be a stretch, as may 'holiday', as I am actually going to a place in the middle of nowhere, to stay in a converted train station with no internet and four family members for a week, and I may never recover. But! There must be a bright side! There is a games room there, and a mini-spa type thing and 2 acres of ground (yes, all where we're going - and it's only us there, like a little rented holiday home thing) so, er, please let bits of it be good?

So, today I am being busy with packing and sorting out my iPod and cleaning my sink and packing and emailing people and packing and things.

I am taking somewhere near a hundred-weight of books to get me through the torment.

( List of books, in case anyone is interested )

We are returning next Saturday - the day Deathly Hallows comes out. And I shall be purchasing that on the way home. And I shall be walking through streets of anywhere we stop with a kind of practised deafness, in case anyone decides it would be fun to shout out the ending. This is super caution, as last year I was spoiled for That Big Half Blood Prince Spoiler by Newsround. Newsround, people. The world clearly, clearly hates me.

And then that Monday I am off to Manchester overnight with my dad and step-mother, and we will be seeing Order of the Phoenix, and as such I shall not be on the internet after today until a week on Tuesday (SPOILER LOCK-DOWN COMMENCES NOW).

Shh, I'm silly.

Anyway. I hope you all have a good week and a bit, and I shall see (well, metaphorically speaking) you all sometime the week after next!
