On the whole, it's cheaper. BUT.....some things are not that much cheaper. There are bargains to be had, it's all too easy though to convince yourself that everything is a lot better value than maybe some things actually are. Personally, I'd buy out there. Just make sure you know how...

The Radisson is right in the middle of the airport, linked by walkways to the terminals. Its not cheap though but it is nice, we stayed there last year. There are loads of others and i'm sure others will be along to give you more ideas. Simon ps totally agree...Tony Romas rules!

really? wanna buy a TAG ;-)

I know, but then I couldn't sell the Casio in a few years time for pretty much what i paid for it!!

Treated myself last October Bought mine from Times Square watches in Belz Mall 2. Paid just under $1215 (inc tax). Watch was marked up at $1,550 but they had a sale on so got $335 off. Same watch locally was being sold for £1200 when I got back so made a decent saving. Seemed to me...

thanks keyleigh!

and for some reason instead of replying to the thread "has any one booked with american specialists before? " I decided to completely show myself up and start a new thread. Mmmmmmm Guiness, the cause of all evil !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sounds like a good price, never heard of that company myself. Got a web address for them? cheers Simon

We stayed at the Radisson before we travelled last October. It's not cheap but it is a v. nice hotel. It's also linked to the terminal via walkways. It was a 5 minute walk from the hotel to the check in desks, so no messing about first thing in the morning! Simon

Came back from there just over a week ago. The hotel is fine, OK it's no Savoy (it's just your normal standard Travelodge type place) but it's clean, VERY well located, quiet. We had no problems at all with it. let me know if you have any q's Simon

We came back last Thursday and it would be 2 weeks ago tomorrow that we visited DC. What can I say about the place it was absolutely fantastic. Paradise. Everything there is set up perfectly and even Simon who didn't do the swim thought it was great (he thought he would be bored silly on his...

Countdown is well under way now! Off to Manchester tomorrow, flight to Orlando on Wednesday. All packed, well almost...........I'm sure we've forgotten something. Simon

Emma, SIM cards will generally work in any handset, all you'd need to do is ask Orange to activate International roaming on your account. BUT...... Some handsets are locked into a particular network meaning that only SIM cards from that network will work. Handsets bought on a contract...

Children react differently to chicken pox. For instance, one of my neighbour's children was quite poorly being physically sick and other one felt OK. My daughter also caught it just afterwards and as I was almost expecting her to catch it I stocked up on calamine lotion. The first sign of it...

Currency Express can be found here; Currency Express Rate at today is 1.523 HTH Simon

Helen, I used Currency Express a few weeks ago, they did indeed deliver the very next day after I placed the order (at 8am!) Can't recommend them highly enough, I'll definitely use them again. Simon

Virgin certainly are doing well, upgraded me and Kim earlier on today, £250 return each. Hope its worth it!

You could download a bit of software called DVD GEnie... it allows you to alter the Region settings on a PC DVD player. Also if you want cheap (er) DVD's check out www.play.com. Really good for Region 2 and Region 1 DVD's Generally the Region 1's are a bit cheaper, released earlier...

Carole, I've just realised that it isn't the 15th Oct we fly but the 16th so we'll be on the same flight. I'm getting a bit over excited you see and well it tends to cloud your judgement doesn't it? We are actually travelling up on 15th Oct and stopping at Hotel overnight. Spoke to Simon and I...
