Hi
I have just sat and read through at least 30 pages on Thread 3...to find when I got to the end..there's thread 4 already!

I have been mainly lurking, because am off to Malaysia March 20th, and have had some planning to do for that. 7 flights and 7 hotels in total for the trip

Hope I have got all the details correct!
Once that trip done, then I will be glued to the PC here no doubt! Hope to get to know you all soon.
Have got around to booking flights today from Birmingham to Barcelona on the Thursday pm before we cruise. Hotel next.
18kgs hold luggage and 10kgs on board. Now there's a challenge. Will buy some toiletries in Barcelona when I get there methinks. What weight saving packing tips does everyone have? Lots of cruise threads come up with packing lists that increases luggage weight....everything but the kitchen sink! Past 2 cruises we have had Virgin flights with more allowance than we could ever need...I had one bag just for shoes! So this will be a new one for me!
Still struggling with the Transatlantic fight home, but not in a panic yet.
Is anyone else planning Parasailing at CC? I have always wanted to do it, and DH gave it me as one of my Christmas presents! He printed the details off from the website and wrapped that, so I could have the surprise on Christmas Day, as obviously we cant book it yet.
Loving everyone's animal stories throughout the thread. We have a new Cairn puppy dog (well, new in that she is 14 weeks old). We have called her MAGIC

but she is usually called Madge for short as an everyday name! Today she has discovered a new thing. eating cat poo...YUK!

Hopefully she will grow big (well...bigGER) and strong and neighbours cats will no longer visit our garden
Great to be here!
So looking forward to the cruise!
