According to my Countdown App, 79 days but who knows what changes Monarch may make before then

4 Months and 1 week and we'll be back after a break of 4 years.
As long as TC don't muck our flights any more,

All those countdowns (excluding the Rachel Riley sort

).

All those reports to look forward to…

What else have you got to do, apart from boat trips, eating, drinking, reading, swimming, eating, drinking, shopping, days out, eating and drinking?

Yeah, all right - just do your best - PLEASE!

When I first replied to this it was 79 days...now it's a mere 24. Cases came down from the loft on Monday and I'm already looking at a load of things I don't remember buying...

So, with still a little under three weeks until we are in Kalkan, I'm sort of packed

. I've done the first and second cut of clothes...footwear still undecided, but more or less know which 27 pairs I'll be taking

Discovered I had three books still unread from last year, so I'm now looking at 9 paperbacks and I'm really unsure of which ones to leave behind...Of course it all changes when the toiletries and...erm....shall we say home comforts are included and we start playing the "what can come out" game...always a tortuous excercise as I've already decided at this point what I'm taking and I'm not in the mood for compromise.
Monarch told us we could check in...so I have! I think this means the last flight cancellation was the final one. Still need to sort out visas and insurance but I properly am counting down the days now we are practically in the teens... #20days

The mind boggles......"home comforts"?

Chris_S · « **Reply #31 on:** May 23, 2016, 10:21:48 AM »

I just hope 'home comforts' doesn't include batteries

I dont want to incur the wrath of the "food in your case police" by divulging what that might be...

I really admire your organisation and packing skills K4E but if I packed so far in advance I'd torture my self by taking stuff out, then putting back in, then taking out, replacing, changing etc etc. I'm so indecisive. Imagine what I'm going through right now re the EU vote!!!??

I'm selfishly very glad your holiday is imminent as it means that ours is getting nearer too.

kalkan4eva · « **Reply #34 on:** May 23, 2016, 03:48:51 PM »

I only have to pack for me these days, Lizilu and with the exception of a few new additions to the holiday wardrobe...although BH and I differ on what "a few" actually means....its more or less the same clothes I take year in year out. So packing is easy. Its the removal by force when we cant get the weight right I have an issue with

Oh K4E, how exciting, cases down, and the beginning of your packing! I have to say I too am the same, if I started packing too early I would be panicking as wouldn't be able to remember what I had put in, and it would have to all come out to check and re-check! Just made me chuckle, 9 books! wow you must read very quickly! and 27 pairs of shoes!

you would get on so well with a friend of mine, we have been away at the weekend, and she took 6 pairs of shoes! we were only gone 48 hours!

Looking forward to reading your blog if you have time in between reading those books

I wish I could get away with 27 pairs of sandals, Jayne

I have packed 8 pairs - which believe me is conservative - and I might throw some in my hand luggage last minute if there's any room with all those paperbacks

The words packing and light are never used in the same sentence with my name...just sayin!
