1. I'm all sorted for Florence this weekend! Any last minute suggestions for Florence (or Pisa)? (People have definitely mentioned the dome, and the uffizi. Apparently the top ten are: Uffizi; Dome; Piazza della Signoria and Palazzo Vecchio; Boboli Garden and Pitti Palace; Ponte Vecchio; Gallery academia; Baptistry; Campinile :))

2. I'm going to Luton Airport on National Express first thing Thurs, but no-one fancies giving me a lift instead, do they? I'll take you out to dinner on Sunday :)

3. I'm really really looking forward to seeing some pretty Italy. (And, although it mostly goes without saying, really looking forward to seeing Livredor. Need I convey any greetings from England?)

4. It's unfortunate that very nearly every trip abroad has been from a new airport, to a new airport, by myself, but I've definitely got the hang of it. I still feel a little tired from hotels and public transport directions and things to pack, but never worried :) And I feel very fortunate that L and I seem to help each other a lot wrt logistics.

5. I think I need an autumn/back-to-uni party, probably two weeks on Sat (10th Oct). I know that might clash with numberland's sushi; is there any other reason that would be a bad time?

You could convey some from Montreal if you like.

Definitely :) Any specific requests? :)

I really don't think this is a good way for me to communicate with my friends! It's true I haven't talked to you as much as I'd like recently, but it's not that bad.

But it might be an intermediate step between "seeing in person" (nice) and "email" (convenient) :)

*smile*

I hope that came across as the gentle teasing as which it was intended; and it's not by any means as if I've had that much free time or communication energy myself recently. *hug* Hope you both have a great time, anyway.

I knew you were being silly; I was mainly reacting to [livejournal.com profile] cartesiandaemon's offer of specifying greetings, but put the comment where you'd both see it. I was slightly horrified by the image of you commenting to J's journal, which I read, to give him a message that he would bring to me when he sees me. But thank you for the kind thoughts.
