Thread: Lili's fate is sealed... :-)

wellll another set back... apparently, have I discovered just yesterday, airlines DON'T accept animals in the cabin. Has to be "sent" cargo. For a measly 1500£. It only took me 10 phone calls to different stake-holders in this story to get to that conclusion.

so that's out.

next plan - train. Apparently, in the train, I can keep her with me, and also she won't have to go through the whole pressure thing - now, today I have to call St Pancras to make sure it's all ship-shape, then if all good I have to book a trip that goes from Rennes (Brittany, West end of France) to the Montparnasse Railway Station in Paris - then take the tube with my treasure and go to the Gare Du Nord Railway station on the other side of Paris - take the Eurostar (for the Americans amongst us it's a train that goes under the sea to reach England) to London St-Pancras station - then take the tube in London to go to Kings Cross - take another train for Newcastle - sheeeeeesh.
I have to buy the ticket now because later it will be muuuuch more expensive (right now,250£ for the pleasure) - I still told my Mum it might be wiser to get Lili adopted if she can BUT only by people of my choice. - this means ... if I buy my train ticket I might not use it - if I don't buy it I may need it.
Good news is that husband won't need to come get me all the way to Edinburg at 9:30 in the evening which I was feeling very guilty about although I do appreciate the thought.

AND still not sure how Neevie is going to react. Getting pawned by a monster after an 12 hours trip might be a bit rough on my little flee...

Do you think the Universe/England are trying to tell me something?
