    Morning all info req.Car Parking Legoland I am taking the family to Legoland Has any one used the carparks and what is the basic differenc between the £4 and the £9 priority car parks other than one must be nearer the entrance is the cheaper one a long walk away any help appreciated

    We went last year and ended up in the overflow car park as it was so busy - still not that far to walk to be honest. They have all sorts of "priority" passes that are designed to extract even more money out of you. We have worked out that when visiting attractions start at the opposite end as most people follow a certain route, or head straight for what you really want to go on first.

    The queues were long on busy days, so also take as many supplies with you as you can carry (whatever you are thinking of, increase it!) as the pricing is not cheap in their shops and with all the walking kids get very hungry!

    We got annual passes through T CC boost and spent two days there and will be going back again this summer too.

    Oh, and we went for the signposted diversion/alternative route to get in (takes you a slightly longer route in round the back of Windsor) as it was ultimately quicker and less time sat in traffic.

    Morning all :wave:

    Not 'seen' you guys for ages! Hope you're all doing ok and have had lots of glitches.

    Dodgy rotas at work had me working 50 hours for a couple of weeks :mad: Then had t squeeze in new parents evening, housework and occasionally seeing my children :p
    Just back yesterday though from a lovely holiday to Yorkshire with OH, both of our Mums and the boys. We were so lucky with the weather and all had a great time.

    I've got a few days off now before I start nights later this week so might be able to catch up with you a bit more.

    For anyone who remembers, I had a barium swallow a few weeks ago. It didn't show any obvious stricture or pressure on my oesophagus :j Bloods still skewy but putting it all to the back of my mind.

    Morning babe, I was wondering where you were at.
    Boooooo to work keeping you stupidly busy but yay to the barium test result. :j
    Glad you had a fab holiday, bet it was really lovely :)

    Oops I also did that a few months ago TS
    Didn't realise I had done wrong until oh told me lol

    Oops, I hope you didn't get any water leaking through a ceiling or anything. Luckily DD2's bathroom is a downstairs one so no damage that can be seen. ;)

    Yes slug pellets in the doorway of the cellar.

    They also have to make sure all floor surfaces are very clean so no food crumbs on the floor.

    Best thing is to get up in the middle of the night when they are wondering around.

    We have the odd ones in the study which has a damp corner. I vaccum every corner, hands and knees - odd times in the kitchen as well so I make sure the floor has no crumbs on it.

    Odd times we find ones on the living room floor that have come in on the fur of the cats. The other week we found one on the bathroom wall about 6 foot up - they are not afraid of heights :)

    Thanks for the tips mhoc will pass them on. Unfortunately student digs are not without their crumbs. :(

    Right messy boogers they are, the students not the slugs. :eek:

    Oh sorted out for me. How daft am I lol xx
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.
