Procrastination

Our elder son is preparing to leave home and venture into the world of "studentdom" and university. He's taken some time to come to this decision, having been uncertain about his future direction, filling the intervening years since school with 6 months in Cambodia, various jobs and playing in a band.

But now he's decided. He's moving to a university as far away from home as possible, while remaining on the UK mainland. Coming home at the weekend to drop off his washing won't be an option, and neither will forgetting any vital items.

He's all prepared he says, except he hasn't actually packed his bags!
