Booked our flights to guess where? Yep, it's St Loosha from the 7th of Aug until the 21st.

I was really naughty: I bought Upper Class seats for our trip home.

I like watching this video... a lot:

Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

There is an exception to every rule, apart from this one.

I never thought I'd say this but the bed thing is even more interesting than the bar. Oh, well, maybe not.

I used to have a pal that worked for B.A. When I went New York he offered me Business Class both ways for £200, or Concorde there and Economy home for £250.  I opted for Business Class which I realise was a mistake now that Concorde is no more.

And the food on the way out gave me food poisoning!!

You have to threaten to kick them in the face too.  Otherwise they'll never look down at your feet.

I miss traveling.  I can't wait for the time when the kids can pay for themselves already.

I'm just waiting for when they can be left alone for extended periods. Then I'm off somewhere every other month.  Possibly even with the missus.

The flights I bought in January are now double the price.  It would cost me £8,225 to fly economy out and upper class back now. Remarkably, it would cost me £1000 more than I paid for economy both ways.

Could be the last Caribbean hol' for a while.
