Mine ran out over 10 Years ago.....I hate flying and all the Airport Hassle that goes with it. I'd much rather explore my own Country these Days.

Roxy darlin' - like me, you'd have a WONDERFUL time at the airport honest. Like me you'd set off all the security alarms merely by passing through the metal detector - They don't like me at Gatwick!!! - am I worried??? am I concerned??? - in the words of Pygmalion, "Not Bloody likely".

Re: Holidays

I know you so well Geoff Ladd....You'd enjoy it lol. I'd still not had the knees done when It ran out so I didn't set anything off. I meant the arriving hours before, the long lines, the delays, just the general nusiance stuff.....I couldn't be bothered with it all.

Ahhh but Roxy darlin' - when the alarms trigger they tend to clear the airport, which means there is no queue!!!

Re: Holidays

I am having a few short breaks this year. I love holidays but its difficult with the dogs. I've had a week at my house in Spain. At some point I am visiting a friend who has a farm in Norfolk for a few days where I can take the dogs and then back to the Norfolk Broads in October for a week in a cottage with a couple of friends. I am taking a week off in August to escape the dreaded Olympics travelling problems but probably won't go anywhere. Need to keep a few days spare just in case the house in Spain sells and I have to go out there to complete purchase. Had a viewing on Friday and am awaiting feedback from the estate agent. Fingers crossed !!

Re: Holidays

After almost 4 years of retirement I still can't get over the fact that this is for real and I am not on holiday. Every day feels like a holiday because my time is my own to do with as I choose
