Last day. How can it be? Blustery too. A bit wet, but mostly windy. Storm called Barny on its way in. Just hoping that it will have passed by tomorrow without leaving trees on the train tracks. Leaving very early - between allowing extra time for any storm damage and leaving time in case of higher than usual security measures at Gatwick. Pick up sandwiches to take along, as Monarch is cheap, but no frills. Amazingly cheap, really. £123.98 ($251.36 CAD, €176.87) for TWO one way tickets from London to Cyprus. It's a fair distance, too - 2017 miles from Gatwick to Larnaca. Just about the same as the distance from London, Ontario to Vancouver. So we're taking our own water and food and we're not complaining.
