Preparing to go . . .

18/8/05: 3 weeks to finish the loft conversion, pack our house and sort our admin, then off to Laos for 2 weeks before a great send off to Sri Lanka on 8th October.

All's going well as we catch up with family and friends, sort our vaccinations, redirect post, buy mosquito nets and water filters, and Mike tries to get his head around his new role, compiling resources for constructing hundreds of houses, schools, medical centres, other public buildings water and wastewater networks, dams and lots more.

Loads of friends, family and colleagues have offered great support. It's pretty amazing, and we're so grateful that everything's coming together so well.

We'll post some kind of update to this blog most weeks so you can follow our travels and escapades. Meanwhile enjoy our photo album on the link on the right.
