I can't wait, the weather had better hold. No, not performing....acting up more like. This is the first holiday in years that I've wanted to go on. We have gone abroad for years and although nice I have so much difficulty being away from my safe haven at home that I've always become more and more down and not enjoyed a time that should have been fun. But this year I got to choose and I really really fancy a good old seaside holiday.

Ideally I would have loved Blackpool or Skegness or Seaton Carew (hahaha) but the rest of the family are pretending IoW is abroad because it's across the sea. And it's self catering rather than a hotel or b&b so we can put tons of stuff in the car to take to make it feel safe and homely. I will be taking quite a few dresses and props and stuff and will be looking to have silly postacardy photos taken whenever I get the chance!
