I believe I detect a little DIY snobbery :lol:

Seriously though, we do both. Before we had the boys mr-a and I had never done a package and then we became a family and discovered Mark Warner! Not having to worry about where you're going when you get off a plane with lots of luggage and two children in tow is a joy but I also like organising everything myself and love an adventure.

So, in my opinion, DIY or package is not the difference between a good or bad holiday. Maybe price can be a factor but, by the sounds of it, not necessarily.
It's snowing here in London!

I hope you have a wonderful time, it's one of my favourite places on the planet.
If you get a chance to go up on a piste basher for dinner at the Nederhutte, jump at it.
Travelling on a sunday? Are you going with Esprit?

I know two air hostesses, one of whom works for BA, and they get extremely generous expenses and love their lifestyle. I actually remember a friend from my childhood whose private education was funded by her mother's income as a senior BA cabin crew member.

We all come across rank situations that we want to do something about during our lifetimes. However, I could never knowingly do something that had a negative impact on someone elses life. Do as you want to be done by is my motto.

thank the lord, my sister's honeymoon is very unimportant :evil:
I heard that, even if it was overturned, they'd have to wait until next year to strike?

Caraon-a for example doesnt like negative or provocative posts, and is likely to 1 star them.

I'll leave the rest for you to work out.


where on earth did that come from Tony :?:
I've posted a 1 star on one occasion a very long time ago but felt so bad about it that I've never done it again.
I have, however, given quite a few five stars
