I had to see a client before I leave so the day's going to revolve around that. All goes reasonably well until the last minute when someone wants to talk to me about something - he insists that it's so important I must stop, though it wasn't important enough for him to reply to my email about it a week ago.
On the way back I head for the shopping centre to get a suitcase as I need one larger than my cabin sized one. I went to Argos and, still unsure whether I would need the medium or large suitcase, bought both - they're only £10-£15 and they'll come in handy one way or another.
While there I realise that the last minute fracas at the client means I forgot to get some old bubblewrap that's usually lying around to pack to bike with. A panic call to my son and he's got a little spare in his office that he can bring home.
I spend a couple of hours sorting and packing, running through the checklists I'd prepared, then off for a drink with my sister and when I get back my son should be around to help pack the bike.
