Ganb8te 5 - Escaping the abyss

[gan]

Thanks everyone, that's helpful. I agree, Toots, I need to make this light and fun. That's always the goal. The rate limiting step tends to be H - it doesn't feel like he can have fun (with me). I'm curious to see how he is doing a few months on. Really need to re-connect/re-attract. Any thoughts there would be great. Kinda feel like I need to go into it like I'm meeting him for the first time...

In other news, this morning I went on my first training hike with a potential team for Oxfam Trailwalker. Wasn't sure if I would make it to the start point at 7am as I've had a rough week on the jet lag front. I was supposed to be heading to Tanzania next Wednesday but I'm glad to be putting that off for another week. Even treated myself to a remedial massage last night as the last long haul left me with a sore upper back. Seriously, you guys are FAR away!

Hope everyone is well.
