    Question, completely unrelated to flying, but does anyone know where I can buy a reasonably priced bain marie/table hostess/trolley type thing.

    Ive checked Ebay but there is nothing in my area and delivery is just too expensive to consider buying one elsewhere?

    Jo no idea where you would buy one, but have you checked out local charity shops or freecycle?

    Jo, have you tried sellers of catering equipment? They sometimes get things like that trade in/part ex **do you mean the electric ones that keep stuff warm because that is what I am thinking?**

    Yipeeeeee I am getting a garage, straight in front of my house :D means we can have the bikes etc here instead of distributed across several other peoples garages.

    Flying, no specific rooms tackled but 7 boxes/bags emptied and 8 loads of laundry.....after getting a root extracted which now hurts! Think I have done ok. Soft play tonight, taking little Matthew for his first 'halloween' party
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    If there are any in my area, I can collect/have it delivered here, and could meet you half way?

    Been to post office, so paperwork is dealt with. Meeting is at 7pm, about 15 minutes away, so I need to work out what needs sorting before then. I haven't done much work work, but it'll even out in the end, and if I don't get all this done, it'll catch up with me later.

    My only nagging doubt is that although the US embassy website says you need 3 months validity on your passport from date of entry, lots of people are telling me you need 6. I have 5 months left... and due to the post strikes, it didn't seem to make sense to try to get it done between the last trip and this one (that and the fact that I hate having my photo taken!). Anyone know the truth?!

    Which reminds me... phone calls - woodstoves, leg wax and I'll have to call the hairdresser tomorrow as they're shut today.

    Once that's done, I'll try to get a bit more flying done, so that for a change I might be ahead for the week.
