Hello. This holiday seems to be fully booked. Would love to hear from anyone else who is on the trip. I will be staying at the hotel the night before departure - anyone else doing the same? Babs responded to my earlier message even though I had put the wrong date in the header!

Janet

I put a message on the board yesterday as I didn't see this one. Looks like there's just you and me at the moment! Where are you travelling from?

Hi Babs. I have only just seen this message - I haven't quite got the hand of monitoring the various postings! When I booked my place on the trip, I was told there were only 3 places left. And as the date is no longer showing as available I'm assuming that it is fully booked. Maybe no-one else is coming onto the message board! Anyway, we know that there are at least 2 of us going!! I am travelling from Southend-on-Sea, and have booked the pre-holiday airport hotel. You said that you were staying with your son the night before? Where are you travelling from? Is this your first Just You holiday? I haven't been before, and am looking forward to the break. Hopefully pleasant weather, fingers crossed. Anyway, let's try to keep up this string of contact - we will meet up somewhere along the line! It is nice to have broken the ice with at least one person!! Kind regards Janet

Hello Janet

Ithink it takes a couple of days for the messages to appear. I'm travelling from Southampton and will probably stay with my son in Acton the night before but I may change my mind!I went on a Just You holiday to Lake Garda 5 years ago. I really enjoyed the holiday and met up with a couple of the ladies afterwards. If I don't stay at the airport we will have to arrange to meet up before the flight.

Hi,

I am very interested in doing this trip, next February. And I would appreciate any feed back from past or recent travellers.

Regards Andy

Hi Babs. Let me know if you decide to stay at the hotel. Failing that I will wave a red flag or something at the airport! Once we get joining instructions it will be easier to agree a meeting point if you don't come to the hotel. We will meet up somewhere along the way. I am going to try hard to cut down on the luggage! Hopefully it will just be lightweight summer gear, but I do tend to try and pack for every eventuality!

Regards Janet

Hello to Andy - I will try to remember to put some feedback on the site when I return.

Hhi Janet!

I hope to know what I'm doing after the weekend.

Barbara

Hi everyone,

I am thinking of booking this trip for Christmas. Would really appreciate any comments/great times/recommnedations/etc. you have.

I am going on America Golden West on 14 September which am getting excited about.

Many thanks

Cara

Hi!

Cara, I'll let you know how we get on. I have been in contact with a lady who went in June and she enjoyed it.

Janet, I will be staying with my son the night before so he will drop me off at the airport in the morning. I'll make arrangements to meet you nearer the time.

Barbara

Hi Barbara.

Look forward to meeting up with you. The time will go quickly now! I am looking forward to the break and hope we have good weather. Everything is so much more pleasant when it is warm and sunny! Looking out at the moment it is pouring with rain, but at least my garden will enjoy it. I did respond to Cara last week, but it seems to have got lost somewhere. Enjoy your stay with your son and see you on the 6th. I guess we will get our tickets etc about 2 weeks before so that will give us time to get a message on the site so we can meet up. Kind regards. Janet

Hi! Janet!

I expect you have received your travel documents as I have. I will probably be dropped off at terminal 5 at 6.45ish. Where shall we meet? It's difficult to arrange as I don't want to put my mobile number or email address on this site. Are you going to check in on line from home?

Babs

Hi Barbara. Yes I too have received my travel documents. I guess I will be arriving via the shuttle bus from the overnight hotel but I think that only goes to terminals 1, 2 and 3, so will need to get to terminal 5 from there. I haven't been through Heathrow for years so not sure of the layout now. I will look on the internet to see if I can find a map of some sort. I don't know how many other people are staying at the hotel overnight either. I expect we will aim to arrive about the same time as you are thinking of. I hadn't thought of checking in on-line - sounds like a good idea! I will look into it. This is my first holiday abroad in a while, apart from mad day trips when I have relied on more technically minded friends to do the on-line check in for me! Yes, difficult to think of a good meeting place. Unless we say we'll meet by the check in desk, even if one or both of us has checked in on-line, at least that is a fairly central point? I know what you mean about not wanting to put contact details in. Shall we say the check in desk about 6.45 to 07.00 then? There may be more than one desk of course, but probably adjacent. If we do miss each other then go to the gate as soon as the flight is called and it will be easier to single out other Just You travellers in that much smaller and less frantic area. What do you think? If you think of any better ideas please let me know. Look forward to meeting you. Regards Janet
