Chuck-

Not so many this year as yet again due to the wonders of UK manufacturing, or lack of it, i am under notice of redundancy again![:(!].
But have booked

BHX-AGP in June
and hope to book
LGW-BOS in November

NYC April
Germany World Cup road trip in June/july
NYC Xmas trip (hopefully)

Japan in May on VS900

Group trip somewhere in Europe later in the Summer - Paris, Amsterdam or Barcelona maybe. There will no doubt be many disagreements about this before the thing is booked and then as per usual there will be fallings out, fights and at least one person losing his mind. Probably me. [B)] But I wouldn't miss it for the world.

Sister's wedding in Vegas next January at which I will have to give her away [}:)]

Good luck. We will all have our fingers and toes crossed for you.

Mods - should we not be sponsoring AerJohn. I know we cannot afford money, but should we not be kitting this pro-golfer out with some V-flyer merchandise?:D. He may even be able to get a pic of SRB sporting a v-flyer pin:D:D Now that would be great on the calendar.

Thanks sailor. Not quite there yet but i am within the cut so far[y].

As for the v-flyer pin for SRB, that would be cool and to meet him to would be great. In October at the grove (where i won), it was the director for flight opperations, Matt Lee that presented the prizes. Also the head of advertising and promotions was there too. No sign of SRB but at one stage a chopper started to circle and land near by which made me think that it was SRB. Obivously not[:I]

The sponsership is welcome;) but wont loose sleep if i dont get any.

That reminds me of all the people (friends and teachers) that promised me sponsership in october but didn't because they said i wouldn't win. I showed them and had the last laugh[}:)]

Blimey! You lot travel more in one year than I think I have done in the whole of my twenties (and I'm getting towards the latter part of those now [n]).

It's just the West Coast/Vegas/Canyons tour for me so far, though I am trying desperately to find time and money for Boston in the autumn and NYC for Christmas/New Year.

N.Y.C for 4 days for my Wife's birthday in mid March

L.A for 7 nights then Vegas for 10 with the family in August

Oh golly here goes ...

New York next week
Washington about six times
Colorado Springs about twice
San Francisco at least twice
Gary, Indiana (don't ask) once or twice
New York again probably three times
Amsterdam at least six times

... all in the next six months, beyond that I can't see straight

And for pleasure:

Rome in February
South of France in April
Key West and Chicago in May
Palm Springs in October
Reims (Champagne is running low) as soon as I can fit it in!!!

Portsmouth next week for an interview (can you guess where Sailor )
Vegas in March (first visit there so can't wait after all the great things I've read here)
Rome & Castiglioncello some time in June or July
Possibly Mobile, AL in Sept or Oct.

Although depending on the outcome of my interview next week, I might have to start a mega savings plan so travel in the near future might be cut back.

Your friend must be a thoroughly good egg after SAS[y]. And I have time for boats:D

OK next question - anyone want to guess how many miles all these trips all add up to?

Miopyk

BGI with VS in April!
possibly Tenerife in June to celebrate end of GCSE Exams
TFS in July

hopefully more too!

We managed to get a cheap week to majorca over valentines, I'm planning on a holiday to america around the sart of september (was wanting to go to florida, but was there last year and the gf wont go 2 years in a row!). anyone any ideas where would be good?

Oh I forgot to mention on my trips for this year that:D wherever the V-Flyer party is at this year I'll be there tooooo.:D:D:D

As of yesterday, I got my wish and am going to Boston this year, though April rather than October (school holiday prices suck, but April was the cheaper of the two (and somewhat closer, more importantly [:p])).

Still hoping for NYC at Christmas so keep those fingers crossed!

(mentally making extensive shopping lists and scouring Victoria's Secret website for my next £300 blow out! )

I forgot to add the most important bit to that...

Now that I'm off to Boston beforehand, my summer holiday will take me up to SILVER Flying Club status
:D:D[:p][8D]

Yippee! I'll probably never manage to keep it, but just try peeling those silver tags out of my hand [}:)]

Jacq x

Having quite a good one this year:
Confirmed:
Feb - Sydney/Hong Kong
April - San Francisco/Vegas
June - New York
November - Weston Super Mare [8D]
Probably:
Aug - Amsterdam
October - New York for Halloween Parade
+ maybe one more New York when I get itchy feet.

Also, any good suggestions for New Year?
