Guest guest Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 Hi Julia, Yes, Ryan Air often have good deals on. I always fly with them down to England as even with the extra checking in time and searches, they are still quicker than going by rail, to see my family. The actual flight can take as little as 30mins but is usually 45 mins. It takes you to Stanstead just outside London and only 20mins to my family in Essex. I will be making that journey in a few months to see my extended family and children, as we will all be celebrating my Mum's 90th Birthday Party. It will be a big bash and we will be raising money for MS sufferers at the same time. She always has a charity party on her 'big' birthdays and raises money for MS, which her older sister died from when in her teens. Its a horrible debilitating illness. I feel for Yiara as she also suffers. People of all ages and backgrounds come to her parties as MS knows nothing of race, gender, or monetary status. One year we had a group of Hells Angels turn up, as the group leader was now showing signs of MS. To raise extra money we sponsored my Mum to have a ride through the town on his Harley Davidson Bike. She was 80yrs old and enjoyed every minute. Viva La Difference!!!

Ryan Air often have deals like that so maybe you might think of popping over before summer 2011. I woujld be delighted for you and John too to stay with us. My daughters boyfriend has been living in Edinburgh so she has had a good few trips to Bonny Scotland... he has quit his job though and is returning to live in Ireland again in 2 weeks time. OOOps going way off topic here. > > So back to topic......Who else would be up for a coming to a seminar here in 2011 ? > > I am very excited at the thought that this could really happen if enough folks want it to.... if you say you will come I will organise it! > > love Julia > > , " ionaskydancer " <ionaskydancer@> wrote: > > > > Hi Julia, > > > > YES, YES, YES,YES,YES!!!..... > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
