I know exactly what you mean, my DD2 best friend from primary school has just started her 3 year old with us and I felt really old! Mind you these days it doesn't take much believe me!

On another note, I'm looking into DLP for next July, thinking of booking sep for hotel and flights. Did look a couple of weeks ago on the Air France website and for 4 of us (all adults) it was £624, just looked again (still dithering over buying shares in DLP) and it's coming up as £617.
Just wondered if any of you had done it this way before and when would be the best time to book the flights, I suppose no matter what you run the risk of prices going either up or down. I thought about maybe leaving it til after Christmas.

It might be worth trying to find out over the internet if/when Air France usually do flight sales as then you could keep maybe get them cheaper. I sually just watch short haul ones for a few weeks until I see a good price and then go for it! My brother works in the airline industry, and he says prices go up and down so much because of business travellers moving flights around all the time.

Thank you, that's been a big help. Think I will do that for the next few weeks and also look into flight sales.

NO more DLP trips for me after this until the exchange rate picks up! We have to start saving for Japan!

I've often found that expedia do some reasonable deals on flights, as well as flight + hotel (though that only really applies if you have annual passes).

I think i need to step away from the dlp website, 2 trips in 1 year should be enough for any normal person..

Just a shame I am not normal.

Yup I've used expedia alot for trips, off site hotels (Dreamcastle in particular) do very good deals. Never had any problems with expedia,a nd you get a good quidco return!
