What a weekend... I apologise for the length of time between now and my last entry but I was a very busy girl!!<br /><br />Last wednesday I was up at 4.30am and got a cab to Vienna airport for my 7am flight. It was 3 hrs from there to Lopndon where I had a 3 hour stopover. From there I had a 13hr flight to Singapore where I had a 1hr stopover. It was then another 8hrs to Syd and I arrived the following day at 7pm in the evening. I looked and smelt a little worse for wear..

What a weekend... I apologise for the length of time between now and my last entry but I was a very busy girl!!

Last wednesday I was up at 4.30am and got a cab to Vienna airport for my 7am flight. It was 3 hrs from there to Lopndon where I had a 3 hour stopover. From there I had a 13hr flight to Singapore where I had a 1hr stopover. It was then another 8hrs to Syd and I arrived the following day at 7pm in the evening.

We stayed the night at John's apartment in the city. It was all very surreal. I had the weirdest feeling (which didn't really leave me for the whole weekend) that I didn't belong anywhere. I have been run so incredibly ragged with all of my travels I felt that Sydney was merely an extension of this.

Friday morning I made my way home to Mother!! I was so anxious about seeing her that I found it hard to concentrate on driving. It was, of course, absolutely wonderful to see my favourite person in the whole wide world and I finally got the hug I had been wanting and needing for the past 7 weeks. The nwhole weekend was so rushed and mum was fantastic. We just had time to unpack my bag (and give her all of my washing...) before we had to go and get my hair done for the booklaunch. She came with me which was great as it was more time for us to chat. I had so much to tell her I didnit knowwhere to start.

From the hairdressers (she did a wonderful job curling my hair which is black at the moment) I only had enough time to go home and get ready before leaving for the city. I had arranged to meet John at 5pm. I wore a dress of Lauren's (no, she has suddenly not turned into a sharing caring sister, I think mother had to bribe her to let me wear it) and put some effort into my makeup (quite unusual). ...
