Hi all, well I have done it took the plunge in my first ever holiday on my own. Booked for New York september 16th. I am flying from Heathrow never been there before. So that's alittle scary before I even get to New York. I would love to chat to other people going to or people who have been before to tell me what to expect.

Hi Claire,

we were messaging on the 'ask your editor' forum about staying at a hotel near Heathrow the night before, I've decided I most probably will now and I'm going to have a look around for good deals, I can let you know which I choose if you like and as you said maybe we could book into the same and have a drink the night before, unless you've already booked that is?

Hi Donna, 

 I have booked in to the Leonardo hotel managed to get it for £64. It seems to have a good hopper bus service, or if you stay maybe we could share a taxi. 

Claire

P.s. If possible could the moderator pass my email address on to you Donna?? Then we can arrange between us.

If you put a posting up asking for advice on hotels at LHR, you will get answers as there are many that do book a hotel at LHR, and the price and /or what you get does vary. Some you can leave your car at, others include bus to terminal so ask and you might be able to bag a deal

Hi Claire,

that is the one I was looking at as seemed the best cheapest one, deals are a little more now as up to £79 but still a good deal and as you say seems they have a good bus service or we could do a taxi.  I'll get it booked by the weekend before the price goes up further!

If the moderator cannot pass on our email addresses to each other I'm happy for you to look me up on facebook if your on there as I can give you my surname?

Donna

Thank you for your advice Cindy

Hi Claire,

my surname is Creffield, there's only one of me on facebook so you should hopefully be able to find me.

I have a countdown app on my phone.
