Have fun you lucky bu99er.

Passport photo should be fine - our eldest travelled on a passport photo taken when he was 10 days old and never had a problem - he has just turned 5 so we could finally get a new passport for him. I was glad to as well - he was asleep on the 10day passport photo, and I thought it looked real cute until someone said it looked like one of the open casket-photos on the obituary columns....gave me the creeps after that so I was glad to get rid!

Lionheart - sorry to hear the reasons for your trip - one of the hardest to do from overseas - hope it all works out OK.

Sitting here I just had a weird feeling and remembered my passport expires this year............. just checked and found it expires in Nov 2006. Phew that was close

Just sorry we cant say the same to you Enjoy the trip, though I'm sure it will help your Mum a little to see her Gran child and put a big on your Dads face.

Lord Lionheart

Cheers, I'm feeling a lot of anticipation knowing it could be the last time I see my Dad, but then I'm also trying to stay optimistic. All very bizarre and one of the prices we pay as immigrants

Sally

Sorry to hear your news, do hope you are able to have some good time with him and best wishes for his recovery.

Guess who flies tomorrow with his 2 year old son.................................... hopefully flights into Eire will not be too affected. I am flying direct from LA to Dublin and my sister is picking me up and taking me to Belfast

I heard about this on the radio this morning, Sky Harbor here said they won't allow any liquids on board apart from baby formula and to expect long delays going anywhere.

What I find scary about this though, is that some twit out there who wants to blow him/herself up with others, wouldn't think twice about using a baby bottle with formula in...sick sick bas*ards

Lionheart, I hope that you have a safe flight tomorrow even if you have to suffer some delays in the name of safety. Enjoy your Dad

Elvira

So sorry to hear your sad news, Tom.

Sarah

Hello Elvira, haven't seen you in ages, are you still in the UK?

Elvira

I am indeed!

Long story - hope to find time for an update over the weekend.

How is everyone? What did I miss - anything I should kow about?

Sally

Hello, lovey, hope it's all going fabulously and look forward to your update

Sarah

pretty quiet really....few hot threads with the reappearence of Tolos who's had more usernames than you've got Opera CD's and some young upstart who's calling everyone names for not answering his immigration questions.....I do really wish people would use the search button. We should create a new anacronym UTFS - Use The F@#king Search!

I don't relish travelling UK - USA again anytime soon with all this security scare stuff going on. When are you coming back? You might have to take your stuff in a clear bag and have a full body cavity search.

Bob

Not much, there's a lab section...errr..new voice thread, which is amusing...and err...about it

Tbag

Ain't that the truth........ sorry to hear your Dad is not well, us lot here will be thinking of you..... Take care & safe travels from the Ginge one
