Cant answer the last thread so have started a new one. However I was going on this trip on 9 Oct, although noone replied that they were also going then. Alas due to a health problem, I have had to cancel and am SO disappointed. Perhaps I should say postpone not cancel as, all being well, I will go next year.
I remember that Mick send me a nice reply to my questions, so thank you for that. Also I hope to hear from those who are currently on the same trip to hear how they got along. All the best to you.
