    EBTA 2014...Across the Atlantic we go!!!

    Linked Dining - can someone help me out as I'm in China and I can't access Facebook to see the group but I need to double-check that I've added my DH to the linked dining. I know I'm on there and I've put my reservation number but not sure if I put DH's name. Hopefully someone will see this -...

    EBTA 2014...Across the Atlantic we go!!!

    DH and I are booked on this cruise - just the two of us. This will be our 2nd DCL cruise - we were on the Magic for her first Christmas cruise many years ago with our two sons. Really looking forward to being on the Magic again and so pleased to see so many other planners on here. I like to plan...

    Flying with Newborn?

    You also need to bear in mind that due dates (even after a dating scan) can be very unreliable. It's not at all unusual to be 2 weeks after the due date. If that happened to you then you might be faced with flying with an even younger baby. Is this your first? I have to admit that I was...

    Can't buy my tax disc on line!

    You can always ring them and give them your policy number then they will process it for you. I had a problem last year with mine but they sorted it over the phone and posted the tax disc. Saves going to the PO - Ours always has a huge queue.

    Splash Landings Hotel

    Haven't stayed at the hotel but we spent Monday at Caribe Creek which was a great day out. Loved the slides and swimming outside in Feb was a novelty. The kids loved it and were all worn out at the end of the day.

    Help - do PS2 games play on a PS3 ?

    Even the 60GB one only plays some PS2 games - it is well worth checking online if you are planning on buying a PS2 game to see if it will work. I find most of mine play ok except for the new Spyro game which won't load at all. I thought it was just me but if you google you will find that others...

    Take Away Delivery to Villa's?

    We always order online for delivery to the villa but if you don't have internet access you could print off a couple of menus/phone numbers before you go and take them with you. Both Dominos and Pizza Hut deliver to the villa communities on US27/192.

    Car Renters can use Express Toll roads

    We've had to drive through unmanned tolls a couple of times. Once we had no change and once we paid and it wasn't working so we drove through anyway. Never had any comeback on it and I've been told they are lenient on tourists as they realise its not deliberate evasion. I wonder if that's one...

    Car Renters can use Express Toll roads

    The Dollar $5.95 a day is good value as it includes the cost of the toll. The Avis, Budget and Hertz rate of $2.50 is plus actual cost of tolls. http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/local/broward/sfl-flbrental0928nbsep28,0,7225359.story This will be very handy especially for the trip from the...

    Advice on taking 8 bags with 2 adults/2child

    If you really want to it can be done. My advice would be make sure that all your cases are on wheels as it helps a lot. We are 2 adults/2 kids. We take 4 cases - they are the Carlton long handled ones and I can easily pull along 2 at once. The boys both pull one each. Then DH is left with the...

    Snowglobes ?

    I've bought them back wrapped in towels. They come boxed with bubble wrap so are quite robust really.

    Mickey's not so scary halloween party - costume hire shops?

    You can buy really good costumes in Walmart for very low prices. They had a good selection. They weren't great quality and wouldn't last for years but they did very well for the one evening.

    Beaches All-Inclusive Resorts

    We just got back from a week at Beaches Negril. There are 4 of us (DH, me and two boys) - we had 2 interconnecting rooms. I can't recommend it highly enough. We had a fabulous time. The boys are aged 12 and 14 and they were busy all day with activities. As it is a family resort it is mainly...

    Has anyone rented a cot/crib ?

    You could try http://www.abbf.com/ - they hire full size cots. I've not used them but I've heard them mentioned favourably before.

    Help needed ref. BMI and a childs weight

    18.5 is the lowest BMI you should have to be 'healthy'. For his height your son should be between 7 stone 9 and 10 stone 5 according to the charts. I'm not sure how geared these charts actually are to kids though but your son does seem to be quite light. Is he skinny? My 14 year old DS is a...
