ours just passed, 14 july, Bastille day, and we were in New Orleans so it was cool.

Having a problem - although my shipping boxes are only going to the port, they need to have a destination address for the customs form, do you think I can put on a hotel address or something? I thought of this too late to call them today, and they're coming for the boxes tomorrow - anyone know? Or can think of an address that would be ok to use?

I know the shipping companies I checked with offer storage at the other end - you could do that for a day or two perhaps? Or arrange to have a storage locker and put that address? Or put a relative's address then change it when you move?

They just filmed our office for an into for an NBC show to air in 2 weeks.

I didn't even try but I'm right behind the speaker (center of the shot)!

Congrats on 4 years Dev! Where is that bar? It looks wonderful.

We celebrate various anniversaaries too, not just wedding - any excuse to raise a glass. Though we don't remember the exact day we met

Clerkenwell- tucked in a nifty passage!

It's a Belgian bar with plenty of moule frites.

Damn, looks like I am missing out on Belgian beer week

Poiteen - Ask the hotel - if there a lot, I doubt it....

C's family is in Miami, so don't think that's such a good idea. I will call them in the morning, but i'm annoyed with myself for forgetting to sort out this before

[Trompe le Monde 1,107]

I think hotel address will be fine (is that where you are staying?). I put my temporary address and then told them to deliver to my permanent address when the stuff arrived at the port.

truth is i don't have a hotel address yet. Having been running around doing so many other things, i've been putting it off. So I would be booking one tonight just for the address.

Tried calling an old college friend that I know that lives in Venice, nobody home. Grrrr. Why did I not deal with this sooner.

Morning all, time for coffee and toast. Boxes being picked up in an hour, and our cable, internet and phone being cut off soon too. So see you all in a few days!!

Visa just arrived!

I've got a feeling this has been asked before but my head is all over the place at the moment, trying to throw everything into cardboard boxes. Do I need to take this enormous x-ray in my hand luggage? I don't think it'd fit in my bag without bending.

There is a thread about that here actually..

I put mine in my carry-on bag. Was never asked for it. I did consider leaving it in the UK, but then had nightmares about being turned away at POE because I didn't have it with me.

Read that thread and make your own judgement.

Very best of luck with the move!
