Well I booked our tickets home this morning & I'm so excited!!! Me & the boy will be going for 2 weeks (leaving Sept 7th). I'm a bit worried that we might get some problems at the airport because of Tyler's passport photo. It was taken when he was about 2 months old, so you can hardly tell it's him. I've looked on the web for info as to whether we are to update it, but can't find anything conclusive, any thoughts, anyone had this problem?

Is the passport still in date? My daughter's passport photo was taken when she was 10 weeks old, the last time we flew with her (she was 2.5 years old) there wasn't a problem.

Have a great time Partystar!

TruBrit

can't help with the photo but have a great trip.....i'll be following you across the pond a few days later

Partystar

Yeah, it doesn't expire until 2009. That's great to hear Lisa, it's the same age range, cheers!

Partystar

Thanx, you too! Let me know if you'll be anywhere near the Oxford area & we can meet up for a drink...or 2!

Did you book me one? Who did you book through?

We came here in October 2004, this will be our first visit back, so nearly 2 years! I don't know how I've coped this long.

Won't it be funny if you come back and start dissing on the UK?

Have a blast. Have a curry and a cornish on me

Partystar

Nope, sorry mate, I didn't get one for you, but I could if you've got $900 spare!

We're going with BA, direct!

Partystar

I am actually hoping it won't be as fun as I think, that way I'll be happier to be here!!!

We were looking last night Oct 10 same flight will be $1621 for us. I left March 05 so I'll be interested to to see how it feels.

Are you nervous or just too excited?

TruBrit

are you meaning direct as in non-stop

Partystar

We paid just under $1600, but for a child seat you get some money off, so it would have been $1800 if it were me & another adult.

I'm really excited, not at all nervous. I wish we could be there for my Mum & Nan's birthday (end of August), but it's just too expensive then (around $2000), ah well - better late than never!

I also have a friend's wedding to go to & my best friend's son's 1st birthday.

I shall be going out every night too! I told my Mum that I'm going to leave Tyler with her when I go out & she seemed so excited! She said that maybe if she could get sick of him, she won't hate us being so far away, but then said she doesn't think it's possible to get sick of her only grandchild! Mums!
