Palmair from Bournemouth

[Sandy x]

Well, the decision has been made and my dad and I are now booked. May 5th for two weeks! I can't believe it has got to half way through January and I hadn't booked the first trip of the season!

Last night my dad finally admitted he would feel less stressed about the journey if we went by Palmair from Bournemouth at the more civilised times so this is what we are doing (and bless him, he even said he'd make up the difference from EJ on my ticket!). To be frank, if it means getting him there, I will happily pay more....because each time I fear it may be his last trip.

I am SO excited. We won't be in Arillas till about 10pm so don't know if I'll be able to persuade him to go straight to the Rainbow....but knowing him we probably will!! Yammas!

Hi Sandy!
Great news, I'm still looking at flight prices, but I think I will have to go for Cardiff CWL at £278 plus 'extras', as the price is not going down. I would hate to find that my dithering ended up with me paying even more! Local flights do result in less stress, and I think the extra is well worth it, I get treated like royalty, and now know all the cabin staff by name. I am booked in with Dorita as usual at The Bardis Sun Hotel from 7th-21st. May, so see you there!
Yammas,
Martin.

Thanks for that calculation Eileen! Hopefully it means we may just catch you before you go back?

[Eileen]

We leave Friday evening...lets try and squeeze in a catch up where you can help empty the booze bottles.

[Sandy x]

lol....won't they all be empty by then?

Well my dad is opbviously keen. I only booked a couple of hours ago and he's just rung me to say he's sorted out his insurance. £27 for the fortnight through Mondial (never heard of them but he said it was via his old civil service insurance!) So if you read this Mick and Jill, it may be useful for your mum.

Sandy what a coincidence.  Only earlier this morning I was thinking I should start phoning around for my mum's insurance - so thanks for the tip.

Jill, I've Googled them and here is their link...Mondial

Congrats all. So wish Jen and me could join you all, even if only for a "sweaty" drink in the Bow!

Well, we'll be there in spirit in any case.
