VSO confirmed my departure date as Sunday 6th September today, flying from Heathrow on the 1640 flight direct to Beijing. Hooray! Presumably they're also flying me from Edinburgh down to London on a connecting flight but I haven't been told about that yet.
Also today, I bought a Chinese dictionary which I'm very much looking forward to using - my Mandarin has hit a block these last few weeks and I seem to be making very little progress despite the excellent efforts of my teacher, Zhou Wei. I wonder if this blog will support Chinese and pinyin script? Only one way to find out...
下 个 九 月 我 去 中国

Which says (I think) In September, I'm going to China. :-)
