These days are going too fast

Its already April and with under a month to go I’m starting to panic a bit that i’m not going to get everything done in time, it would be ok but everything i need doing is out of my hands at the moment so I’m in a bit of a limbo situation at the moment.

This weekend was a pretty mad with working the Early shift at Red Bee but also managing to fit in a bit of DJing at Kenney’s Makin Shapes party. I must have have about 3 hours of sleep the whole weekend. Plus my final injections made me feel pretty rough on Friday night. I felt like I was burning up and had such a dry throat all night. Not nice.

Ellie has now left for South Africa, she went yesterday and should have arrived this morning. I’m trying not to miss her but its not working, all I keep thinking about its only 4 weeks till I get to see her again which is keeping me going.
I took her to the airport yesterday and forgot how flipping mad Heathrow can be in the day time. When every I go there I always notice that the queues at the Air India check in always look like pandemonium compared to the rest of the airlines. People and luggage everywhere, doesn’t even look like there is a system for queuing. Utter carnage!

I’ve been trying to fit everything in to my carry on bag but I’m not sure how i’m gonna fit everything in. The film is taking up most of the room. Grrrr!

Kit in Carry bag
Leica M6 Black
Leica 50mm Lens
Mamiya 7 II
80mm Mamiya
Palm TX PDA
Samsung NV10
iPod
Sony Ericsson K800i mobile phone
Plus Batteries and filters for cameras.

The problem is where to put the film. I would put them in my main bag but I’ve heard terrible tales of film fogging from the xrays machines in airports. I shall do a bit of research on this matter.

   Missing you just as much! Soooon! XX

   South Africa is shivering in anticipation for the arrival of the Random one (whether it’s out of fear or excitement i don’t know).

   Ok, so i’ve got the Red carpet organized, Nelson Mandela booked, cheerleaders and the National Boys choir are all gonna be waiting for you at the airport, anything i left out?
