2 Days until we leave - By Siân

So, it's only two days until we leave to start our 3,500 mile journey to Italy and back.

In 14 days.

In a 14 year old Mini called Gue.

With Becky who I've not seen in about 2 years!

Some may say that we are mad, some may say we are totally mad, but hey ho in the words of Robbie Williams and Kylie we're "doing it for the kids"!!

We have totally amazed ourselves by actually reaching our sponsorship total of £1500 in just 4 weeks. How we managed we really don't know! We just want to say a massive thank you to everyone who has help so far, and if you still want to donate it's not too late www.justgiving.com/theitalianjobteam20 !!

We think (!) we have everything sorted. Well Becky & Dave have got Gue ready to go, and we've got our passports and posh dresses for the formal dinner in Rome - do we need anything else?!

We're going to try and update this blog daily, for all the great family and friends who have supported us, so keep coming back to see if we managed it! Silverfox - I'm not that great at song titles, but we'll "try"
