Human intervention perhaps Uni.  He should have side bars on the bed to prevent any falls. Geoff can't move but has them.

I hope he's OK, it's standard procedure to get the paramedics in after a fall so they were taking no chances by sending him to hospital.

Hope FIL is ok Uni.

I vote for Melbourne too. Great shopping ;D

Going to remove 1/2 clothes from case so I can fit in some Oatlands flour.

I was going to do a Gert and bring only a carry-on case, but after reading Chookie's comment and checking a few websites, it might have to be the large suitcase complete with luggage scales  ;D Just checked. I can bring 32 kg of luggage home 8) 8) 8)

One sleep to go!!!

You girls!  My carroyon weighs 6.5 kilos which includes the bag of course,  a coat, boots, undies and not much else. No bugger cares if I wear the same thing every day!

Gert, although we love you clothes,  it is you we want to see. I have a small case, Ral has a big one.. I usually stuff his with what I have bought. !!
Uni,  hope things are ok with FIL.

Chookie I have been trying to do my check in online and I'm having big trouble too. I may have to get DD to do it tonight for me.
I did think of carry on luggage only but I want to bring a warm coat that is waterproof, as well as a couple of other bits and pieces. So it is the smallest suitcase we have, which isn't very small. I figure if I bring a warm jacket, we won't need it. Because we use the van mainly we don't have much of a supply of suitcases.
Emme and dede and Gayle I can't wait to meet you all. It is very exciting.
MF I will see you at the airport tomorrow before take off.
I'm not really rushing to do very much at all. DH is quite capable. I just need to charge the kindle etc. I will pack this afternoon.

Uni I hope Frank's Dad is ok. MIL has fairly frequent falls. She can sort of walk a little bit though. She slid off a chair last week. Poor old chook.

Uni, I do hope Frank's dad is okay   :-*

I am not bringing much either, can only manage 1 bag. 

Chookie, catching bus out of town at 10 o'clock  1-1/2 hrs to get to the bus and then around 3 hrs to Hobart depending how many stops it makes  ;D.

I believe there is a problem with checking in on line with QF at the moment.
