snow Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Its blinking cold here today - last night I found my fleecy pj's and wore them to bed! Went to see Nick & Vicky yesterday their house looks lovely now the decorating is all finished. I have been struggling with a misbehaving keyboard for the past few days - it either typed random letters when it felt like it and in an entirely different order to what I had typed or it simply refused to type certain letters at all until 10 mins later when it would randomly inset the missing letter in the middle of what I was trying to type. Its been infuriating, I have spent hours re installing batteries and drivers and scanning the pc for malaware, disabling this that and t'other all with very little effect so was about to give up and switch to a wired keyboard when I decided to try one last thing and have switched the usb receiver from the back to the front of the pc and that seems to have done the trick - for now -probably should have tried that first would have saved a lot of time lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lil_angel Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 6 days to go. Eek! Had horrible headache yesterday was bordering on migraine but managed to get it under control. Really enjoyed my lie in this morning, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gooster Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Eek Amy, I can't believe how quickly it has come around! Have you started packing yet? I need to stop seeing stuff in the sale and buying it! My case will weigh about 10 tonnes at the rate I am going Plane spotting was cold this morning, there was a bit of a breeze, was freezing by the time I got home I got to watch 2 dreamliners this morning though, as well as the Cancun bound one, there was one just before that went to Cyprus. I can't believe how quiet it is when it takes off though! Watched the A380 Emirates land, then had to come back home to take the dogs swimming.

lil_angel Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Not packed yet but have made list and rucksack has come out of storage. Booked National Express to Airport yesterday. NE says max weight they handle is 20kgs. Do they weigh it then before it goes into the coach? Still faffing about with the travel insurance at the moment.

gooster Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 I don't imagine they will - 20kg is standard luggage allowance anyway when you fly long haul (or it is with the airlines like Thomas Cook etc) and I find it is usually enough to fit all my stuff in for 2 weeks (and believe me, I don't travel light ).

murtle Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Been to the park to play rounders with my running club! Good fun apart from the one slightly weird woman shouting at a kid for no good reason other than she doesn't like her mother!! Now to finish all the housework before work starts again tomorrow!

Still faffing about with the travel insurance at the moment. could it be 20kg per bag ? I don't imagine they will - 20kg is standard luggage allowance anyway when you fly long haul (or it is with the airlines like Thomas Cook etc) and I find it is usually enough to fit all my stuff in for 2 weeks (and believe me, I don't travel light ). standard for non package holidays to Asia / Australia is 30kg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happylittlegreensquirrel Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 with insurance Amy I think the main things to look at are policy excess , is baggage covered and the number one most important thing to check is you have medical repatriation. Most price comparison sites seem to cover those so you can see what the major differences are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lil_angel Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 I remembered about you saying about repatriation Sam so that Ive been making sure I check its ticked. Axa seems good for both single trip and annual multiple trip so just need to decide which. Im wavering more towards the annual multiple trip one as we've been looking at going to Copenhagen around Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
