More superb pics Happy - thanks. I have always wanted to do a trip like this...one day...:)

Thanks. It's the only trip I've done through a travel agent (STA) as I don't think I could have done it independently, especially due to the language barriers. I did the learn the basics though - Piva pronounced peeva (beer):beer::beer:. But we were well looked after, some places didn't have hotels and we stayed in peoples homes. We were met from and took to each train, guided walking tours although the guides were quite clearly minders/undercover agents. It was fairly obvious we were being followed when we went out alone but I think they made it obvious so we knew not to step out of line:eek:. But we certainly paid for all the guides/help etc as the whole trip, not including spending money and some tickets cost £3,500 each.:eek: I doubt I'll get there again but I would be on the next flight to Moscow in a flash. Actually, I would quite happily live in Moscow.

My grandad lost his battle last night and I am totally heartbroken, it makes it so much harder as there have been so many mess ups at the hospital and he shouldn't have left us

It's so easy to feel so alone when going through such things, but everyone on this thread is so kind and always here to listen, so if it helps then ramble away.
Big {{{{Hugs}}}} to you

I am so sorry to hear this, grief is one of the hardest things in life, but you have our support on here, you don't need to feel alone. ((((hugs)))) xxx

I am so sorry for you i would really love to give you big ((((hugs)))), and take all the pain away for you. I was so close to my grandparents and know what a huge gap they left in my life when they died - but they left me so many brilliant memories and taught me so much in the time i had with them, they always had so much time for me and were never short in showing how much they loved me, which is a brilliant legacy to leave behind you, i just wish i had told them more often how much i loved them and what they meant to me.

Big ((((((hugs)))))) to you and Magicowen, it really put all our little daily gripes into prospective....

Hi Bensonsmum thoughts are with you.

Went to t armed with vouchers.

5 Comfort
4 Fairy
4 Oral B
4 Flash Spray

To pay £2.21
Through (wo)manned till no problems.

Wombled £43 and £12 receipts

My Very order cheap phone case is here and the postie just delivered the free bath bouy from Thames water.

Didn't spot anything worth dtd in that store but some interesting stuff expires on 22nd.

How's everyone else getting on with the MOC from SSE ?

Well, have printed about £10 of fairy and lenor vouchers and have just tried testing it out.
Went to tescos and bought fairy platinum for £2 but when I got to the till, apparently only one voucher would scan
Does anyone know if there's a cap on the voucers?

Just to say Bensonsmum (and all the others with poorly loved ones) I am thinking of you and your family, so glad that you can talk on here and that it helps you. I've said before I wish I could chatter away more but I find it difficult, but when I have people have always shown support.
