Bless the budget airlines.....

Mwahahaha, my return trip to England is booked! Denise and I made a foray to Travel Cuts on the UBC campus, and booked our outbound flights together, though we are coming back at different times. I was glad to find out that Zoom have some reasonably priced flights from Vancouver to London Gatwick (via a small detour to Glasgow, don't ask me why), so having handed over $642 plus insurance (about £270) I can now plan how the hell I am going to get round the country and see everyone in three weeks. Sadly because Zoom only fly on Weds, Thurs and Sat, I can't get home for my birthday :o( but I get in two days later instead. So all those people who I am sure had massive celebrations and presents ready for me, you'll just have to save them for a couple of days, ok? I wish....

Plus the advantage of this is that I can spend four or five days at home with my parents when I fly in and can thus avoid the horrors of Valentine's Day. Hoorah! Apologies in advance to all the people whose hospitality I will be blatently taking advantage of when I come and see them (um, basically, Greg) because I always seem to end up having nowhere else to stay. I promise I'll buy you dinner in Trof. Or perhaps now I have a car, a daring run to Bradford for the largest naan in the UK?!!

Now it's all booked, I can get excited about coming home and seeing everyone. Yey!!! :o)
