    August to Florida this year = not cheap flights.

    Mrs was dead keen on direct flights. Looking at £4500 or so for economy for 2+2 - sod that!

    Even indirect was averaging £3000+

    Got a bargain. £1900 with BA via Chicago. Not ideal - 5 hrs in Ohare but for the sake of almost £1500. (But 2 hrs miami coming back to not too bad).

    Not as flush as some of you who'd do business class lol.
    All sorted now then?

      And it is a great place to go with kids. Apart from the long flights that is.
      And having kids with you
      Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

      No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.

            Thomas Cook? When did you book though?

            I daresay if I'd booked earlier it would have been cheaper. Happy to pay £1900 rather than £3200 though.

            Happy that if I looked on skyscanner today it is £3200+

                This reminded me that I hadn't booked my car so I did last night. Now, we are driving from NY to Virginia International Raceway via Skyline Drive, than on to Roanoke Island, Washington DC and back to NY, so we'll need a decent car. Budget Car Rental, Ford Mustang $1200 for 2 weeks, result!
