    That's a very selfish, disrespectful and inconsiderate attitude, but each to their own... I'll say no more on the matter.
    Wow
    Talk about jump to (flawed) conclusions!:doh:

    It was a question, that's all, not an attitude!

    I agreed with you that travelling without adequate insurance is not for me either (in fact I've just paid a significat extra premium to ensure my husband would be covered for any heart/circulation problems) and also stated that I'm not agreeing with or advocating dodger1 travelling without insurance, but you obviously chose to ignore that - 'selective' reading maybe? :wall:
    (And you think my attitude is disrespectful? :doh:)
    Everything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the end

    Golden Nugget Hideout Pool.

    Might interest anyone who is going to stay there particualarly at a weekend.

    We are going to stay there on a weekend in May, apparently the main pool gets very busy and unless you are there very early, there is no chance of a lounger.

    The Hideout pool is adults only and you can prebook a lounger for $20, refundable up to 48 hours before if you cancel.

    I cant remember ever paying for a lounger but have booked 2 for us on a saturday, just a heads up if anyone else is interested

    It's nice up there, we're too cheap to pay, but I think it's free after 5 or 6 pm. We were there early evening.

    We have just returned from our trip to Vegas.
    While there,we spent hours sitting in a medical centre as my wife had a simple blister on her foot get infected.Her foot was all swelled up,and we ended up with a bill for nearly $300.
    My wife is someone who never gets anything wrong with her,she is never ill.While the bill is only £200,the point is I would have said my wife is NEVER likely to be ill while away......the fact is,is it worth the risk.

    As a doctor who writes a report for insurance companies ( and with a close friend who workscoordinating repatriations) i really can't stress enough how much you need adequate insurance to cover pre existing medical problems

    Can anyone tell me if there is a current Restaurant.com promo code? I haven't seen any for March.

    I want a Harley-Davidson voucher and I'm off in a couple of days! :j
