So, I'm off tomorrow morning, at the lovely time of 9am 
shock::shock::shock::shock::shock with my parents to go all the way to Norfolk. For those that don't know the UK, here's a lil map of my journey!
MAP!!! CLICKY!!
It may not look far to those of you in the US, as England probably just looks like a tiny dot to you guys! But it's roughly a 5 hour journey by car.
It's my nan's 80th birthday on Saturday, so we're all going to have a big family lunch to celebrate. I wasn't going to go due to the cost, and it being my best friend's birthday celebrations too, but even my uncle and his wife are flying back from Israel, where they recently moved for this, so it would look pretty bad if I didn't go! Plus, she's my nan, I haven't seen her for 2 years nearly (my Dad and his dad don't get on, therefore we don't see them often- infact my Dad didn't speak to his Dad for about 6 years when I was younger and I couldn't see them the whole time), and since she's 80, I really want to make the effort. It scared me to think that I could not go, and it could be my last chance to see her. You just never know.
So, I booked myself a hotel all by myself, since the one my parents are staying in is full! I'm about a mile away, at The Shellbrooke Hotel which looks very nice!
I might still be online though, I'm taking Steve's mobile office card, and my laptop, in anticipation of being very bored in the evenings! So you might still see me online....
I'm so scared of seeing the aunty that hates me, and having her give me evil looks over the table whenever I speak. But oh well. She does it all the time anyway!
Gosh, I've gone on a bit. Anyway, I'm going away, will be back soon. That's it in a nutshell!
