    Enjoy your evening at home Cumbria :). The weather seems to be horrible everywhere at the moment!

    When do you actually travel to Oz? Will you be there for Christmas?

    I actually go this Sunday morning and land back on Christmas Eve. Staying for Christmas hikes the flight price up to much for my budget. :money:

    Exciting :j :j :j

    I think I'd rather be in this country for Christmas as cold weather is more Christmassy. I would totally say yes to Christmas in Iceland or Lapland though :D.
