Up The Farway Tree

Hammer down on £1, 298

Ah well, the deal is done - I have actually forked out the above sum for travel insurance. I never thought I would see the day! I spoke with another specialist broker who did reassure me that as long as I stay out of trouble in another couple of months (once over a year since last admission) I will be eligible for the normal Fortis policy which is under £100 worldwide. Galling to miss out by only a matter of weeks but at the same time I am reassured that my travelling days are not over. Anyway my family have rallied round to help me with the costs so I have not been left to sort this out by myself. Families who love you are rather good things to have...

So now I can start to get seriously excited! I have pre booked tickets for Kennedy Space centre and 2 days passes for Disney. I am thinking probably Magic Kingdom and Epcot would be my choices in those 2 days. I am not really into roller coasters etc so Epcot more my style...and you can't seriously go to Disney without seeing Mickey Mouse at the Magic Kingdom haha. The tickets arrived last week and the Disney ones are like plastic swipe cards with Disney characters on them. My first reaction was to point to the Pluto one saying 'that one is mine, that one is mine!' which was perhaps a little childish ;- )

I am doing a lot of work on the CF Body Image booklet. We have completed our survey with over 150 respondents, so I am now looking at the results of this and trying to pull out some useful statistic from them. It is really quite interesting so far - especially around weight issues. I would love to do a proper study comparing CF people and their weight/eating issues with a control group from the general population - maybe one day I will get to do this through work perhaps. So this little project will fill some of my days off for a while....in between meeting people for coffee of course. The other big project is my father in laws birthday invites. These are top secret however although production has now begun....
