My mum was planning a holiday to Spain for her 40th this year, and i'm going too, with her and my dad! I wasn't too excited, as i probably wouldn't get my passport in time, but it came yesterday!

Oooh i don't know how i'm going to get to sleep for the next 3 weeks! Apartment is booked, i've paid for my flights, and i should have plenty of spending money. Plus i have a spanking new passport and i've never had one before - the picture isn't even that bad.

*jumps up and down*

Anyhoo yeah - just sharing my excitement :woot:
 
Have fun! Where in spain are you going? Id love to go there one day. My passport was taken when i was 16 and im 23 now so i look a bit different haha.
 
I'm 23 and this is my first ever passport :D It's a place called Torrevieja. Apparently it's quite nice.

I didn't think they'd accept my photo cos i was smirking slightly. My brother was trying to make me laugh while i was in the photo booth :) When i went for my interview i had to wear that same smirk/half smile all the way through so they'd think that's what my face normally looks like :roflmao:
 
Oooh ooh ooh! And the best thing is that i lost another 9lb since last time i went to the docs 3 weeks ago (Thats about 2 and 3 quarters of a stone since June - thats 37lb)

So when me and my mum get paid at the end of the month, we're going holiday clothes shopping! Also getting my hair cut and styled. Oooh i'm all excited!
 
Ooooolala

That sounds like TONS of fun!!! Can I come, too?:bigmouth::roflmao:
 
Loopy Lou - you just put the biggest smile on my face. I am not going anywhere, but hearing you talk about your trip, your weight loss, and your hair cut, I just have to grin.

There is just nothing like feeling GOOD.

I hope the next three weeks you are just tingling every day with excitment.
 
Tingling with excitement? I'm bouncing off the walls lol. It's so good to have something nice to look forward to.

Meetz - if you can fold up small enough, i'll pack you in my suitcase. May have to chop yer legs off though :)
 
Enjoy, Enjoy! Spain is wonderfull (allthough it's very hot there right now), I've been there when I was 14. I look forward to your vacation story when you're back.
 
Ah thats ok - i'm a real summer person so i love the heat. Pale skinned though, so i smother myself in high factor suncream, and wear some really daft hats!
 
:bump:

This time next Thursday I'll be just arriving in Spain, woohoo! I can't wait for a whole two weeks off work cos i've been very stressed lately.

I've done the last of my holiday shopping, and have some cool outfits to take with me :D

Also ordered extra meds etc, got my holiday insurance now, everything is all paid for and i got some Euro's last week, yay! :woot:
 
Soooooooo, if

I can fold myself up reallllllly tiny, I can come too? I'll just bet I could do that, considering........LOLOLOL I've never been to Spain......Hasta luego, baby!!!
 
I am green with envy! Have a wonderful and safe trip to Spain. :)
 
Sure! Also, you'd need to weigh less than 22 kilo's, cos thats the luggage limit lol.

We'd have to give you a little "trim" round the edges - you don't really need arms and legs, do ya?​
 
I am green with envy! Have a wonderful and safe trip to Spain. :)

I'll probably be bumping this a few times before then lol. I'm like a big kid waiting for Christmas!

Mind you, when it gets to December, i WILL be a big kid waiting for Xmas!
 
Congratulations! I loved traveling overseas when I was younger... :) Still love to travel and strongly recommend it to almost everybody. :) You'll have to post pictures you know!
 
I will :D

Apparently it's a nice quiet place we're going to - which suits me fine! I'd rather take in sights and relax then go out partying and having a mad time.

I've never had the inkling to go abroad before, but i would quite like to see the south of France.

I'll see how this trip goes:banana:
 
Ok, this is my last stop in before i go away (tomorrow!!!!).

I'll maybe be in an internet cafe over there. By "cafe", i mean it's in the pub lol. Anyhoo, i have to go finish packing, so i'll see you guys later!
