    Actually no because we found out that the hotel was actually about five miles away from where we want to be plus my diet requirements are getting harder so SC makes much more sense.

    A holiday sounds great - and done in a DFW way too, can't be bad :T

    I have the Tax Credits :j :j :j :j Still fighting for the rest.

    Right, holidays, I have the holiday booked and the extra travel insurance (with my health I am taking no risks!).

    I now have £123 left from my original budget plus possibly £25 from the week's food at home (I pay in so figure I can take that or is that really mean?! :confused:), Nan said she'd give me something for spending too :)

    We're self catering for 7 days, how much do you think I need?
