    BB~Sounds like you hada journey from hell home :(
    time wise it took no longer than I expected. If check out was midday I would have an hour less of sitting around at the airport which would have been helpful, but was ok.

    It was just every few minutes getting on/off something else!! The flight was great though - I only heard 3 tracks on my mp3 player after the seat belt sign went off and then came back on and so all headphones had to come off before landing!

    so glad I had a bag on wheels. If I'd have had a carry type bag for that 20 minute walk I'd have been well brassed off (or, as Pepe said yesterday about something 'had a right cob on' a phrase I hadn't heard for years before yesterday!:D )
    :D"Stay Wonky":D

    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Hi everyone!
    Had such a lovely time yesterdaqy-sorry turned into Moody-Bunny and went to bed early-I guess 4 weekends on the trot of actually having a social life has caught up with me! (sorry again)

    I loved meeting everyone, and everyone is exactly as I imagined!

    Im utterly shattered.

    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    OH is only just leaving Manchester! Christ it will be around 2 when he gets back:eek: . Apparently he stayed up with his family to watch the cup final.

    Pizza for 1 it is then :D

    The washing was the stuff I took with me - the clothes I was wearing today and yesterday etc. Monday and Tuesdays are so mad for me I need to make sure everything is washed - that is one of my few work skirts I was wearing on Saturday!
