Still not packed, its a now just over a week until we go so I think I should better get some done. Perhaps Claire will do it for me, then again I want some decent clothes that I can wear.... and some pants, Claire would find it dead funny not to pack any for me.
I have actual done some work towards the holiday, I spent most of last saturday driving around various chemists and supermarkets getting a price for Malarone our malaria tablet of choice. Its pretty expensive but it has the least side effects and is the only suitable for children. Claire and I have to take 37 each, Darcey 74 and poor old Piper has to take a whopping 111 tablets.
Boots were going to charge £467 which is the kind of price I was expecting, Sainsburys charge was £380ish, quite an improvement. Manor pharmacy was down to £315, while Tescos, ASDA and Superdrug all came in at £308. I am quickly comming to the conclusion that I got a bit ripped off last year for the Malarone. I also had a quick check of the internet and I managed to find them for £288 but something about buying drugs off the internet was putting me off.
I have also been and ordered our foreign currency, a load of US dollars which seems to be the currency of choice in Peru and a handful of the local notes 'nuevo sol', I wonder what these will be like I always find foriegn currency has the look of monoply money that Mickey Mouse keeps in his wallet.
Still no packing done.
