Getting ill with the Maguire's!!! Trip report, Day 1.....the day before!

[mark&sue]

Great start to your holiday. Love the Sofitel. Another one who feels the same way when we go on holiday, but I put my stress down the being so scared of flying as I am not so bad when we drive over to Spain, but still nervous.

A great start to your trip Claire - I do like the sound (and look) of the Sofitel but we also love the Hilton at Gatwick and it works for us. I think if we ever fancy a change, though, we will most definitely check out the Sofitel as it does get good reviews.

I am also a worrier before our trip (and during, usually, as well) - DH reckons I'm never happy unless I've got something to worry about. I usually put it down to the fact that we're paying a lot of money for the trip and I want it to be perfect.

Thank you all for reading.

We did enjoy the Sofitel Joh but have booked the Hilton for Sept - using the Tesco vouchers as per your thread a while back. Who do you usually book the car park through?

I think that is the reason why I get stressed too - mind you it's probably what made me ill this time round!

Great reviews!!!

My DH can never work out why I am hyper & over excited for months before a trip, then the week before turn suicidal!! Its good to know I'm not the only one!!

Great start - I'm another stressed traveller, but like me, I'm sure you make up for it when you get there!

I thought I was reading my own trippie for a moment there, Claire . Just a month earlier we were doing the whole Twilight Check-in and Sofitel thing (albeit we invariably choose the back seats on the opposite side of the PE cabin as Matt likes the little table attached to the aisle seat, and this time we ate at La Terrace).

We had those seats on the way back....Lee liked the little table too so I think that will be our preference in future.

I am going to catch up your report this week as I am starting to fall behind with a few and I can't be doing that.
