BA Crew are fabulous
We travelled to Rome for the rugby this weekend with our daughter and they couldnt do enough to help on both legs of the journey. Friendly, polite, mature, well turned out, understanding and attentive. Fabulous experience and I feel like the journey was part of the holiday rather than an endurance experience at the end.…

UK Passport Question

Obviously this is less good for us as we've got less time on our last day and the flight arrives earlier. Is there anything we can do about this or do we just…

Ryans Air Gift Vouchers alternative to debit/credit card fee's?

So the way around is to buy Ryan Air vouchers which you don't pay the commission for using Credit/Debit cards and use them that…

Getting rid of timeshares
In the 80's my parents bought two timeshare weeks over Xmas and New Year at a beachfront resort for up to 6 people, however for the last 5 years or so, it's been a struggle to use up these holidays by the family, and now they've finally, finally agreed that perhaps they ought to think of getting rid of it.
