You should get paperwork 2 weeks before which should give you some helpful info.

This is also my first solo holiday with a group.

I've travelled abroad on my own before but not for some years. It will be quite an experience for sure!

Where will you be flying from? I shall be at London Heathrow. I've had an e-mail to say the airport lounge isn't now available,

which I thought would be the place to meet up with any fellow Just You travellers.

I'm another first timer.

I've an appt with my GP soon, so will be able to confirm what malaria tablets I'm able to take and any vaccinations needed for this trip. 

(My arm has been a pin cushion this week, having flu and covid jabs). 

I'm just working out how much currency I will need, in addition to my card. Hard when you don't know how much any meals out will cost.

it is nice to hear that you have enjoyed all of your trips with just you. I've had my jabs and had my malaria tablets so I am all set to go. Looking forward to meeting you.

I am also flying from Heathrow and it would've been great to have the lounge to meet other fellow travellers but I am sure we should still be able to meet up. Not sure what time I will get there exactly but I'm expecting it to be about 7 pm when I'm dropped . Look forward to meeting you.

see you soon

With currency, I was planning on taking about £200 worth of Rand.  I'm sure you will be able to pay using a debit card (preferably one that doesn't charge a fee if you are using it abroad).
