I couldn't agree more! A recent Thompson flight check-in which we were quite concerned about was no problem at all and yet a couple of weeks later at a Monarch check-in which we were quite relaxed about, they were really fussy.

What really puzzles me though is that once I have passed through check-in and security, I seem to be allowed to buy anything in the shops and then take it onto the plane with no further checks?

12 sleeps to ski!!!!!!!!!!!!



Just realised it's the same for me :D :D :D
Would the new Russian resort of Sochi fit the bill? It would certainly be memorable and totally different.

Do you realise how long you will have to be married to get to your 25th!!!!!
I think this is due to East Anglian superiority :D :D

We not only spent time setting up to record it and totally ignored our son's advice NOT to bother watching it, but then we actually wasted part of this afternoon watching it!!!!!

I could have been watching paint drying.......

BUT BY FAR THE BIGGEST HATE HAS GOT TO BE THOSE....SQUAT TOILETS, fine for men but women with ski boots on well that is just an amazing feat of balance and skill. :)





I hate those as well but haven't encountered one for some time - are there still some left?
