I've just read this from start to finish and think this is what it must be like to take LSD.

So...er...what's step 3 then? Going to Sheffield? 🤣

I've not paid over £450 to get to the States for the last 4 years. Aer Lingus is pretty good, with the advantage of clearing US Immigration in Dublin, which saves time at the other end. 

If you book approx 5/8 months in advance, you seem to get the best deals. I've booked for Los Angeles in May (which is becoming an annual thing) with KLM, which was £436

 

East coast would be better for the old Jetlag, but I only tend to suffer coming back this way anyway. Looks like a top trip! Only visited South Carolina and Philadelphia on the east side.

And so

 

Step one - bimble to boston

Step two 

I wanted to go back to the moray coast and happened to see petrolize thread about moving a knackered shitta cough lovely fiesta ( joke paul) to northern Scotland

So this is 3pm on the day of arrival so mid morning in boston

So after much tooing a froing

No help

She said i think you should cancel the sat and book somewhere else

Found another which was as different as youd expect

Old wooden outside all wood floor and recently done inside

Remote access so heres the number and on ya go - so immediate trust to a foreigner that they never meet

The hallway is done to a standard which the other whole house might not be worth

And you must be this that here - fuk that

Think trebus and onslow mixed together

Lets just say she isn't a people person
