Where do you wanna go?

OK Its Tuesday Night, planning a little trip to Paris for my Birthday (18th, today, in case you've all forgot!)... I'd researched the details last last week, but when I went to book it bloody Eurostar had doubled the Price! Now out of principle I'm not going there and I want to leave in the morning!

Let the Expedia Search begin!

After a good few frantic hours (who said the Internet was meant to make life easy!), a choice of offerings had been shortlisted, most of which are previously visited places, but something new was needed this time, the Czech Republic and Prague.

Just on the very edge of booking and I remembered I needed to get to the chemist first thing before flying, bugger, I'm not gonna make that 11am flight. No big deal though, a quick change to a later flight and we're sorted :o)

Wednesday Morning, packed, chemist visited and provisions acquired, it's off to the airport, yippee, holiday :o)

OK OK so it was my fault, when I'd changed the flight times I hadn't realised that Expedia had changed the departure airport to! F**K (Anyones natural response when your told by the check in Trolley Dolly your not booked to depart from that particular airport!)...

Ohhh No!!!! Start Running!!!! 38 miles Gatwick to Heathrow, 25 minuets (In the Car!!!), not bad by anyones standards for the M25 :o) Enough Time anyways :o) Check in successful :o)

But this might just be the start of the misfortune, on arriving in Prague they refused to let anyone off the plane for an hour because of a Bomb scare in the terminal (An additional hour without Nicoteen!), top that off with the fact my mobile phone cant connect to any service provider here, I know its just gonna be one of those holidays! ;o)
