  • I'm supposed to be on a diet too...

    Have managed to lose a few pounds running around like a blue arsed fly trying to get ready to go! House is a tip, cases are still empty, travel insurance not sorted, no idea how to get to the airport, not confirmed the apartment...

    Sounds about right.

    And, judging by how much I plan to eat, I'll look more like this when I get back:

    ooh breaking news, I might be getting a seven seater car soon (buying not winning :()

    Gonna have a look round some places on Sunday - just have to get the other half to agree, he can be a right stick in the mud at times
  • Had loads of experience of 7 & 8 seaters Muffy, go carefully they are just big cars and as long as you don't overload you'll be fine (Kia Sedona's are great!)
    but we ended up with a 9 seater minibus (called Sherman as it drives like a tank!) and this can take everything we pack in it, all the kids, their mates & the kitchen sink!! The insurance was only £260 roughly and the road tax is the same as a car.

    ps T - fridge smells lovely, thank you xxx
