    I am definitely ready for it - I just want it to arrive now, so I can get on with it!! I am not so much looking forward to Saturday - I think that will be a bit of a stressful day, getting to London, collecting number, sorting stuff out, etc, but I am looking forward to Sunday very much.

    Carb loading is going well - currently munching my way through jaffa cakes. Even my childrens ski coach champions jaffa cakes as good training food, so if it is good enough for them, it is good enough for me :D

    I do have a problem with carbs though - I generally have a high protein, low carb diet, so to be loading up with carbs is taking my body a little while to get used to and is quite uncomfortable at times!

    I do have a splitting headache - I have had such a busy day, I don't think I have had enough to drink, so I must watch that over the next few days...........:o

    Hypno - Itching to get on with it is exactly how it should be so you must be ready.:D:D

    Dont worry about the uncomfortable feeling from the carbs - just lay off them after tomorrow and you'll be fine.

    Anyway, you should all be in bed by now.

    Only tonight, tomorrow and Friday to get your sleep in - the night before is irrelevant!

    So stop posting and get sleeping.:p:p
