Well it seems that chez Ceith has become a launching point of sorts for several PBF members heading to Bonnie Ole' Scotland. Aside from a non-posting member who will be dropping by just prior to his departure, I have just found that Dan aka "Drumpretzel” will be spending a few hours here (and leaving his car in my neighbours Driveway) prior to his Tueday night departure. Following that …. I will play host to a most revered guest “Her Royal Sassness”. Sass and I will be heading out to the Airport by 6:00 pm on Wednesday ……

Looking forward to meeting all of you Friday night at the Griffon Get Together

Don't know whether to believe the airline or the passengers. Only one thing to consider, pay a cut price airline for a cut price service or pay the expensive fare with a reliable airline.

Personally I have come to the conclusion that flying is no longer the enjoyment it once was due to long queues and non-sensical security regulations.
The chances of me ever flying again are very slim.

Certainly no enjoyment these days in flying yet if you dont go with the cheaper flights it would be impossible to get to various events aka the worlds, I am happy to pay that little bit extra, but it does not always work out

This was big news here Dai...people going to Ireland stuck at JFK airport for a week. It was terrible.
And as Stormy said flying is not as enjoyable as it once was.

Forget I said anything.

With the costs of flights unfortunately I look for the cheapest rate. On an aside ... is pretty sad when I can fly arcoss a freekin' Ocean for a mere $120.00 more then it costs me to fly to Montreal. I can drive to Montreal in 6 hours. :gah: :gah:

I will be nervous as hell until such times as I have been and got back again. Last year I was on the motor way en route to the airport, when I got a call from Gillian telling me that the airporst were all closed, thanks to the terrorists?
The attack the other week at Glasgow< got me thinking "here we go again" so until I have been and returned, I will be on pins.

Sitting in a flying Tube for 9 hours is unbarable!

Dealing with Security idiocy is insulting.

Traveling to any destination with friends is priceless!

Traveling back with them in a flying tube for 9 hours is unbarable. :rotf:

It will be interesting to see if the airlines misplace SFU's drums on the way back...this year like they did last year.
