Please help to calm my nerves!

We are going on holiday tomorrow and are staying at a hotel by Heathrow tonight. We did our face to face PCR tests today and should get the results by 7.

We have done LFTs daily and yet I can't relax until we get these fit to fly certificates!

AMA at all, to calm the nerves, pass the time and distract me (my partner is suitably distracted by the Liverpool game)

Xxx

Is the LV game going ahead. My DH will be ecstatic Grin.
You’ll be fine OP- have a lovely holiday!

Dumbledoresgirl · 19/12/2021 16:58

Where are you (hopefully) going?Smile

CrowBones · 19/12/2021 16:58

What's your favourite meal?

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 19/12/2021 16:58

Just the two of you?

VickyEadieofThigh · 19/12/2021 16:58

With whom (firm) and where did you do the face to face tests, please? Asking for future reference.

IcedAbstinente · 19/12/2021 17:00

How did you meet your partner?

traveltrouble · 19/12/2021 17:04

Ahh love these questions!

Just the two of us, yep! No kids yet. We are off to Dubai, flying with Emirates tomorrow at 7.

We met at a pub in Cornwall, I actually gave his mate my number (didn't even speak to my partner that night) so he then stole my number from his mates phone the next day and texted me! I was very confused and uninterested. He phoned me later that night and the rest is history!

We had booked home test kits with Chronomics but I panicked they wouldn't come back in time so we got face to face tests with Katalyst, at Marriott Hotel near Heathrow. So quick and easy! Praying they come back negative...

@CrowBones I love anything cheesy! Spag bol is like my best friend.

Currently waiting for Mac and cheese and cheesy chips at the local pub in London. My partner has just celebrated Liverpool's goal... Smile

Would you rather win £10 million but not be allowed to tell ANYONE ever including your partner, or win £5000 with no strings attached?

CariadWelshcake · 19/12/2021 17:07

If you haven’t packed a cardi or wrap then I suggest you buy one before you get here - it’s a bit colder than usual.

Where are you staying?

traveltrouble · 19/12/2021 17:08

@ShinyMe what a question! I think the 5k. I couldn't cope, I could keep it from everyone but my partner...

@CariadWelshcake ooh really? We've never been before. We're staying at Dukes the Palm - A Royal Hideaway. Do you know the one? Xx

10 million

I wouldn’t need to tell DH he’d notice the mortgage had stopped going out each month!

😂sorry you weren’t asking me.

More important than what you’re eating OP- what are you drinking?

traveltrouble · 19/12/2021 17:11

Why did you choose Dubai for your holiday?

BlackCatz · 19/12/2021 17:13

What are you planning on doing in Dubai?

traveltrouble · 19/12/2021 17:13

We chose Dubai because there seems so much to do and everything just seems bigger and better.

We are swimming with dolphins at Atlantis on Christmas Day, followed by a yacht cruise around the marina. We are riding camels and going on dune buggies in the desert on Boxing Day!

Any celebrity crushes?

AppleKatie · 19/12/2021 17:23

Best sort of spritzer that.

NeilBuchananisBanksy · 19/12/2021 17:28

Please don't swim with captive dolphins. It's unspeakably cruel. This is 2021. You can go see them in their natural habitat easily enough.

vdbfamily · 19/12/2021 17:42

Dolphins might not be captive. I swam with dolphins in New Zealand. You go out in a boat, find a pod, bundle off the boat in wetsuits and googles and by the time you have worked out what way is up the dolphins are half a mile away and you start again!!!

traveltrouble · 19/12/2021 17:47

@samsalmon hmmm.. Aitch, the rapper?🤣
