    Anyone stayed onsite at Universal?

    We have stayed at HRH before and are staying again for 4 nights in August. We really liked the room, it was very clean, comfy huge beds, classy coffee maker. We preferred it to our room at the Beach Club really. Free wifi will be great with 2 teenagers! Few downsides; parking fee, no free fridge...

    How old is too old for a pushchair at WDW?

    On our first trip my youngest son was 5, nearly 6 and he was fine without a buggy. He had the very occasional ride on Daddy's shoulders but generally the excitement would keep him going....:goodvibes But that was in February so not as hot as August. Now he's 12 and taller than me!!!!

    Hello! Live from the World!

    I have a lovely memory of going to Ghiradellis at about 10am on a Sunday morning and sitting with an ice cream watching the world go by in Feb 2007. My boys are looking forward to buying and making some cars at Ridemakerz, they have been saving up their money!

    Nationwide CC

    I believe it applies to debit card not credit card and the rate changes on 1 November, I remember because that's the day we come home! Current account holders should have received a leaflet in the post.

    To Drive or Not To Drive - THAT is the question!

    We are definitely of the hire a car camp! But you need to find out what shuttles your accommodation offers to the parks, if any, where to, how frequent, cost etc. before making your decision. Some shuttles will only drop at one place in WDW then you have to use buses to get to where you want to...

    Bringing two I-Pads through customs.

    I apologise for my calculation error (maths was never my strong point!). Anything over the most basic IPad model would be very close to the limit.

    Bringing two I-Pads through customs.

    The most basic IPad is going to cost in the region of $500 so assuming a $1.5 to the £1 rate that is £375, which is uncomfortably close to the limit in my opinion. What about any clothes, trainers, presents you are bringing back?Customs are not stupid, you are running a big risk if you choose to...
