The beginning

Hello!
So to give a brief intro, on Wednesday I am off to Chennai, India, with 12 others for three weeks. The charity we are all with is Chennai Challenge, set up by Cathy and Rob Short and Isaac Jones. Whilst there we will be visiting various projects around Chennai and going to a boys town most afternoons. We will also be taking away all of the boys for a few nights on an activity holiday. We then f;ly home on 30th August.
All of us except Cathy and Rob are meeting at the impossible time of 3.45 AM on Wednesday and being bussed to the airport by Andy. Think that I may be a little ill, but I am going to dose up on travel tablets and rescue remedy to avoid repeating the horror of last time.
I think that I have just about everything that I need, off to Guildford soon to get the last few bits and bobs sorted. I have skirts, various tablets to prevent various things, lots of t-shirts (I have learnt from Moz), travellers cheques, and I have checked that Rob has my passport so all is good. I even have a pair of sunglasses which I might actually wear, shock horror!
Eeeek.
