Here we go, here we go. here we go.....

Well.. almost. Final stages of getting ready for Sparkle. I have about an hour before I hit the road. So far the morning pattern has gone like this.

Check Email.

Read a couple of news sites.

Throw another pair of shoes in the suitcase.

Hunt for spare pair of contact lenses (stupidly forgot to put them into solution yesterday.... when I remembered to go back they were rattling... and I don't think soft lenses should do that!)

Have breakfast

Throw another pair of shoes in the suitcase...

...and a top...

Check I have all the chargers I will need... This is getting silly now. I have a charger for my phone, for my ipod, for my camera, for my bloody toothbrush... I have so many chargers there is going to be one hell of a power surge in Manchester when I get up there.

Debate whether to take my illuminated makeup mirror... decide its just one thing too many to take.

Sanity check of wig, boobs, makeup, makeup remover, nail polish remover, razor, spare razor, tights, undies etc etc.

Throw another pair of shoes in the suitcase.

Take aforementioned shoes back out of suitcase in the realisation that I am only there for two chuffing nights and I have enough pairs of bloody shoes already!

So... yeah. I think I am sorted. Just need to get some petrol on the way up and some munchies/water for when I get up there.

I have a half-arsed plan to try and update this blog over the weekend. I have not got my phone working too well on sending things, and my PDA cant talk to it either... So I am going to hope I can get a net connection in the Place apartment, or one of the WiFi points down Canal St. I want to try and update you all with events and also sort out a Flickr photostream of the event. I'll keep you all posted via this blog (hopefully).

Here we go, here we go, here we go.......
