This sounds like a lot of fun. Based on the pictures you've posted of the view outside your window, I'm sure it would be spectacular.

Haven't fully decided yet :p It depends on many factors: how's my skin doing (bit of a flare up after staying in travelodge for two nights), how's Pilau doing (he's currently a bit clingy, but then I have just got back :P), what's the weather like in halifax ( two beardies, each of whom weigh nigh on 4 stone, and both of whom require physically lifting in and out of the car to go for walks - lot for Mum to deal with, add shitty weather and the dogs tramping mud through and needing feetwashing and towel drying...)

Lot of factors. I'm keeping my options open til last minute, if that's ok with you?

Packing and cleaning and sorting out paperwork on Saturday - urgh.
Then work at Boots on Sunday until 17.00 (it will be manic, so I'm hoping it will go quickly).
Then off on the train to Lun-Donn.
And across to Victoria, hoping to be first in the queue (before there even is a queue!) so I get first choice of bunk.

Excited?
A bit. Erm, okay - a lot.
I will still worry a little right up until I am on the coach though...

And I have no idea what to wear.
I have four Christmas dresses and not one of them is really suitable for eating out at 17.00. And if it's cold most people will come to the panto in jeans and jumpers.
Ah well, I think I will wear the plain black one anyway. I don't mind being a little overdressed after all.

I'll save the blingest one for Christmas Day.
Jeans and jumper for Arran. Although I'll have to borrow one from Dad!

I don;t think I'm going to be able to do the Isle of Arran, I'm afraid. I wasn't able to get into Uni today as Mum wasn't around to have Pilau (don't like leaving him more than an hour or so on his own as he gets stuck in places or positions he can't get out of :p) which means I am going to have to go in on Wednesday

It's such a shame I live in an impractically small house. Locationwise it'd make the perfect choice for a GtG, given it's between the two of you.

I am soooooo jealous (but happy for you three, obviously!)

sounds like so much fun.

will be keeping you all in mind and raise a glass for us, will you all?

I know I never post pics but I don't know how to do it - everytime I try I mess up - and no one will HELP me over here but I really appreciate the pics other people post.
