3 Weeks and a day

Well it's 3 weeks and a day till im gone and everything is chaos. Things to do before I go:
  • Sort out lease on house and fill 3 soon to be vacent rooms
  • Sort out moving utilities for house from my name
  • Finish buying things
  • Stop being sick
  • buy more stuff
  • Cancel australian health insurance and various other things
  • Maybe even work out where im staying in london for the first few nights
  • Work my two jobs
  • Probably submit a conference paper or two
  • Catch up with friends before I go
  • Clean my room
  • Sell my bed
  • Read up on touristy things
I'm not really sure for the order, but stop being sick has to be the top of the list. I went away rock climbing for the long queens birthday weekend, and had a great time, however i must have been coming down with a cold as i was leaving and sleeping in a tent in 4 degree temperatures can't have helped much.





The climbing was good though, The weather during the first two days was amazing - I was climbing in a singlet, however the nice clear days of course made for cold evenings. It was amazing how green the area was. Over summer there wasn't a blade of grass to be seen in the pines camping ground. This time it was like a lush meadow - one of the photos above shows a nice view of the feields. Maybe australia isn't totally doomed to an apocapytic mad max style fight for water after all.
