Well, Amy will be at or very close to, the airport now, Thomas Cook flight 2194 departing 13:15hrs. She has wound me up because this morning in bed before getting up I've been reading her brilliant feedback for her May 2015 holiday. I've run my iPhone battery down to less than 50% and only got halfway through it, so I've had to stop and will pick the rest of it up later. But right now I have to get out of bed and put the log edging down in the front lawn, then cut the grass round the pond (by hand). But in between, I have to go into town to see if I can get a new pair of sandals for Skiathos in just over three weeks.
So, here's looking forward to Amy's feedback for this year, coming to a forum near you soon!

So there she goes - departed at 13:40hrs and now (when I grabbed this screen shot) approaching Birmingham.

Looking forward to the reports, especially looking out the window this morning, strong North Easterly winds, drizzle and cold grey skies! Don't think we'll be risking the beach today!

Hi all, Wi-Fi reception poor at moment so will move down to the Pegasus for an extremely late breakfast and hopefully start my feedback! Should just say that despite Dennis' report that we took off at 1.40pm it was actually 1.45 pm - not being pedantic Dennis but mad that the flight was 30 mins late when it could have been on time! That meant 30 minutes off my holiday fix (and I don't mean the beer)! :-(
Just like to add Bob that I started my holiday in grand style despite your hopes that I would be accident free and at my own front door! :-) struggling with my suitcase (and why don't taxi drivers help passengers any more) I managed to scrape the inside of my left leg, just above the ankle, against one of the suitcase feet (yes the same foot as last year)! Well I suppose when it comes to it, I'm just a clumsy beggar!! :-):-):-)

Have a great holiday Amy, fingers crossed for weather, consensus seems to be expected max of 28-29C with mix of full sun and some days sun and cloud mix all week. Sounds good to me.
