We're setting off for Boston on the 8.30am coach out of Portland, on Friday. We will arrive in LA at about 7.00pm their time, 10.00pm EST.

Saturday morning at 6.00am I will get a wake up call from John McDonald, who has a morning radio programme in the Portland area, for a live report from LA and from then on it will probably be a busy weekend.

I am so glad that Kendall's surgery isn't happening until the 16th February - at least, next week, we will have time to decompress properly.
