Getting closer !!!!!

Well Helllloooo to all you people out there in cyberspaceland. :0)
ONLY 3 WEEKS and 3 days....... didya see that ...... : 3 Weeks and 3 days to go, till the Overseas adventure begins, or should i say National Lampoons (wombats version) European vacation. LOL
I am doing this blog tonight on the Baby Laptop that we brought for the trip, the eeeeeepc (darin) as i thought that i had better give it a try and see how my fingers and EYES stand up to the smallness of this little gizmo. So as its stands i have been in the MS peer group site chat room tonight on here, and found using this lappy a little bit more difficult but only because of the size of screen (7 inch) and small keyboard,whereas i am used to a bigger screen normally... or a normal size laptop, we also have a baby size mouse to go with it and i had problems to no-end using that but only because of my retarded fingers LOL, so i ended up changing the mouse with my wife so i have been using a normal one and shes got the baby one cos she can use it better than i, so i have made a suggestion that we take the normal mouse on the trip as well.
All in all apart from some problems using this (because of the lack of feeling and sensations i have in hands and fingers) if i take my time its not so bad, anyway my wife doesnt mind using it and doesnt have a problem so all will be good.
So only time will tell if it works out to be a good purchase for the trip. Size wise it is ideal.
Back to the trip, still looking for a hotel or B&B to stay at while in london just prior to the trip to europe as it is proving to be difficult to say the least (when your booking for 4) Fionas been looking into it for the last 4 nights with not alot of success as everywhere she has e-mailed were booked out for the times that we want, but as i am typing this we have success, with an enquiry that we sent about an hour ago, just looked at the site on the internet (mmm, Looking nice ) good reviews, so i think this ones a definite starter. - :0) Its all starting to come together. My bags packed, my sons bag - is half packed and my wife hasnt started yet :0/ lol. Yes - we are getting closer to takeoff, did i mention that we only have another 3 weeks and 3days to go ( not that im counting ) MUCH hahahaha.
Anyhow till next time - The Wombat waddells off

Paul,

We have stayed at the following hotels in London and they were all good:

Aaron House Hotel, Bloomsbury
Rushmore Hotel, Earls Court
Premier Travel Inn, near Waterloo Station

The Premier Travel Inn is a large chain and have a number of motels in London.

All the best,

Andrew
