Can you cross fingers for me please? I go tomorrow!

I'm actually seeing it as a good thing - normally I would spend endless amounts on things that I didn't really need, I would spend the whole trip shopping. This time I will barely spend anything, and actually visit some tourist attractions (mainly free - Washington DC)!

that is what I am starting to realise, less time shopping = more time for culture and relaxing

Mrs Blink has been made redundant, we fly to Florida in a week (thankfully paid for), but will have no spending money and what little will have is shrinking as the pound gets hammered.

Anyone got Gordon Brown's and Freddie Goodwin's addresses - I think they owe Mrs B some money.

(And any wag who posts 10 Downing Street.......I am looking at you, Fish and Bond)

sorry to hear that.
beer and pizza by the pool sounds like my kind of holiday!

foxes crunch creams are amazing!!! i had to settle for some home made savoury rice, well home made by bachelors. and a double decker, possibley one of the nicest chocolate bars ever made.
