They left today! Nick's parents, sister, Grandmother and second-cousin departed Manchester for Heathrow at 19.25 (at least that was the expected take off time). After Heathrow and Singapore, they will land in Melbourne around 18.30 GMT on tomorrow, which is about 05.30 local time on Thursday. Still, rather them than me. Both of us decided that we didn't want to travel that distance with an infant (they wouldn't let me fly all that way now anyway). Also, Nick couldn't get 7 weeks off work! (They're all due back in January).
Personally, I'd rather wait til they were older and can appreciate the journey and go for about 5 weeks. Best time for me would be our summer hols as I won't have Guides or Cadets. Be a few years yet!
