    You're aging her prematurely :eek: Wait till she gets hold of you, no one wants to be half a century old earlier than they have to be :rotfl::p:rotfl::D
    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.

    Thanks. The main thing I have found out from the dibble and various fb groups I am on is to use a Alamo brits but wasn't sure if I would get stung at collection for more insurance costs. It's years since I have been the one booking the car. We used to go through ba I think and prefer alamo. Like I say I don't want to get there and find they want more money.
    As dd had already booked holiday before I said I would come and her oh hates driving over there they have use booked on magic bus from airport declining the car. As disney guests I have been told we don't pay parking at parks and could prove handy if I want to meet them half way through the day.

    I will look at alamo brits again as their prices seemed so good I thought I would have more to pay.

    Thanks x
    Definitely no extra charges at the airport with Alamo Brits, other than the option to prepay for a tank of fuel if you wish. There is no pressure to do this and often they don't even ask, you have to request it if it's what you want to do.
    If you go down the Alamo route you can do a kind of on line check in before you fly, then when you get to MCO you just scan your paperwork, pick your car and off you go - you aren't preassigned a specific vehicle so you can choose from whatever they have available in the category you've booked.
    Also yes, parking is still free at the parks for onsite guests.

    I changed to Aviva for House and contents last year, £182. I've had my renewal on Friday :D. It's gone down to £162 :T. I'm staying put for this year :)

    We normally use a broker (business colleague), but this year they have added a £40 admin charge :eek:

    Have found a quote from L&G for just under £120 including legal and home emergency :D Should be able to get £25 through Quidco too. Am hanging on a short while as waiting to see if any better deals come along, have 10 days or so before we have to jump.
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare
