Oh to be prepared to early! We are completely the opposite. We bought our plane tickets August 31 and fly out next Wednesday (I think that's a record for the most advanced ticket purchase for us). I'm pretty sure hubby hasn't reserved a rental car yet. I haven't even thought about packing yet. I'll do that next week after my son's birthday party on Sunday!

Ahh you see Denise, you're a homeowner, that's different, you get blase about it all as you go so afoten as a rule.

Us plebs have at least 12 months to ge excited about it.

For a fortnight before we leave, me and Mrs. Macka sit on the settee in our holiday best with our cases packed and by our sides, waiting for the big day.
[/quote]Ahhhh, just like the 'too excited' adverts!

Home owner or not, I do an A4 calendar on the PC divided up into am, pm and evening and write all the 'appointments' we have on that. I print it out the day before we go. At the end of the calendar, I put on all the relevant phone numbers, etc, etc, email addresses and the like. Then I put it into one of those clear floppy folders (to keep it clean) and when we arrive I Blutack it to the wall (it's our wall so I'm allowed to do that!).

As well as that, all the vouchers, photocopies, etc, etc go into my master folder which I carry in my handbag.

Just one note is not to keep the key lock box codes (or any other codes) with the address. If you happen to lose the piece of paper, anyone has entry into the villa (not a good plan!).

I'm really surprised you've got the door codes four months before you're going though or may be you didn't mean you had these yet?
