Well Ros would have to go before she starts term again. So she suggested early Sept. I just looked at flights now, just as an estimate and it says....
SAT 7th SEPT
London (Lutton) to Paris
16:45 18:55
total= £5.40!!!
WED 11th SEPT
Paris to London (Lutton)
14:10 14:25
Total = £10.90!!
So if we book soon, thats the sort of price we'd be paying!! bargain!! When do you get back from Barcelona Cass?? What date? The we can sort it out.... YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY!!!
Can miles truly separate us from friends? If we want to be with someone we love aren't we already there? If there is someone willing to show, and there is someone willing to see; magic happens. This is whem humans are alive. This is when the wingless fly.

OK, so i should be back from Barcelona around September 3rd or something...
So the dates sound quite good to me
I would *really* love to have you around, lovely princesses and I'll make some yummy crepes and thai food, I promise would my beloved brother come as well ?
i need to check one last thing though : I am currently staying at my parents since I have no more place of my own because i am leaving soon to travel and need to save money. Soooo... I need to check with them that it'd be OK and they won't be around. they are usually spending the whole summer outside of Paris which is why they let me use their appartment ... soo.. I shall check that with them next week if that's cool with you and will get back on that as soon as I know
and now, am I not breaking one of the HOP rules that says we are not supposed to have private conversations on teh board ?

i thought our intro threads were exempt from that? As a way to get to know each other better? or was that just wishful thinking?........

cassandra, hugest hugs to you lass (then swings her around in circles!) i would have to say cassandra, that you bring out the best in people.
