    That's OK if you want to walk around with a coat on all evening, and scrap frost of your car in the mornings.:eek:

    Yeah, it's not for me either. I like to be in T-shirt & shorts in Vegas but for £308 it's a great deal for some.

    Good opportunity to try out skiing/boarding at Mt Charleston....if you got chains with the car rental!

    As a one off I'd give Vegas a go in January.

    I posted an addendum to your incomplete post as soon as I noticed it was only half right. Luckily at least one MSE poster wasn't put off by your post and grabbed a flight from Manchester to Vegas. THey must have been one of the 99.9999% who had read the 2nd line of the link you posted yesterday.

    Flights are direct from London or Manchester

    On time sensitive postings you can't afford to get it wrong. The deal that was only going to be around for a few minutes and your post could have led to people wanting to fly from Manchester missing out.

    Hi all

    Just done online check in for tomorrow from Manchester managed to get seats in "the bubble".

    All I need to do now is patiently (not!) wait for my hubby to get home from Holland tonight, he doesn't land till 9pm I hope there are no delays/volcanos.
    Don't wait for your ship to come in, swim out to it.

    Hotels may be on the expensive side though...CES is over those dates...10th to 13th...
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    We used to go all the time in the winter because we used to go up to Mt. Charleston and do just that. But then you could miss out if they don't get any snow. The snow maker they have only points towards the black run and then it needs a base coat of real stuff to stick. You don't need chains, just hire an SUV. Even considered staying in one of the lodges or the Mt. Charleston hotel, they both look lovely in the snow.
    We stopped going because the cold nights outweighed the fun we used to have during the day.
    The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.
