Good to hear from you again. Pam and I 'spoke' to you in the Tour Managers section a few months ago. I can't believe how fast the time has gone and we will all be meeting up four weeks today.

I am not looking forward to the long flight either but after reading lots of good reports I know it will be worth it and we will have a great holiday. I can't wait.

Hope more people get in touch. See you at Heathrow.

Well only two weeks to go! I'm like a pin cushions after all my jabs but I've been told I don't need Malaria tablets or Japanese encephalitis so two good things, lol.

I've heard that we can only take so many yuans is this right does anyone know?

I'm very excited but I do hope the 100km traffic jam in Beijing has gone and it's stopped raining and we all have a wonderful time!

I really should be more organised but hey ho I shall get there in the end.

Looking forward to seeing you all, Trish I'll give you a call soon

Understand it is £400 equivalent in Yuan - should be enough for the tips. I will start checking the 10 day weather forecasts next week to see how much suntan lotion to take or if an umbrella would be a better option! Must sign off - need to order a chinese take away - getting in practice.

Best regards

Only one week to go now. I am so excited, I can't wait.

See you soon.

Trish.

I'm more concerned about whether I will have a passport and visa!!

Only a few days to go. Do we really need an umbrella? I am sooooo excited.

See you at Heathrow.

Welcome aboard. Dave is right, we might need our raincoats. Check out the seven day forecast on www.holiday-weather.com. It might help with the packing.

Glad your visa & passport have arrived Pam, will ring Tuesday p.m.

Looking forward to meeting up in a few short hours.

Trish.

Looking forward to meeting you too. I can't believe in 24hrs I'll be on my way to Heathrow. See you at check-in or the executive loungs I'll be the harassed looking one, lol.

Well that's four of us that have made contact what about the rest?
