    WOw well done.. sounds like a wonderful prize...
    I have often wondered about the panic to get a passport last minute.. was it easy? as I always do the vegas and new york comps but would need to get passports.. so I never do any last minute ones!
    BACK and READY..... waiting on Royal Mail!!!
