Mike,
Yes, I'm afraid it did come over as being a bit heavy handed dude - my reply may have seemed a bit full on too, but maybe you can understand that it got under my skin a bit being called patronising and xenophobic ?
Anyway, apology accepted, and thanks for that.
I'd be careful about posting while lubricated if I were you though - assuming that everyone who comes on here knows what things like LOL mean isnt a good idea, not everyone who uses the net is a chatter.
And Kazzie, I kinda figured you were referring to Mike's post, but thanks for clarifying that.
Well, we passed the barrier to being less than 3 months from our trip to the World yesterday - flying out on Boxing day - so I'm hoping my own assertions are right and that we do get a rate hike before our trip (having a fixed rate mortgage helps). My lady's kids will be on their first trip to Disneyville, so you know we are gonna be spending big time, especially around Chrimbo !! A few extra cents per pound will help take the sting out of it !
I've never been with kids, and I'm really looking forward to seeing their reaction to it all... OK, and I'm busting to get back myself, I admit it !!
