  1. Congrats Dave, take it you decided against Oz then?
  2. Just started hunting flights for Arizona. How much did you all pay last year out of interest?

    Lovely image. Where abouts in Bury was this taken?
  4. Thank you for that Tom. Living near Mildenhall air base, these are not as such a rare site round these parts! Paul, Tom, Nick and Aaron on tour 4. I'm being spoilt
  5. Just one tornado and I will be grinning from ear to ear
  6. Anyone willing to bunk up with moi? Need to save some £££
  7. They really haven't changed much in last two months. Got mine for £540 end of Novemeber. Just ran a quick quote and they have gone up substantially since end of 2011. £628 :o
  8. Love severe weather but Tuesday is the one day I don't want any. Typical isn't it! Got a wedding to photograph
  9. Cheers John, Actually ended up buying a new lens so atm do not have any ND filters. I juggled between the two and went for a polorizing filter as I think I will get much more use out of that. May get myself an ND8 at some point as I know I will regret it when i'm out there! Got myself a plug convertor thingy and have plenty of 4 way adaptors here at home so all sorted for that. You at the Oxford bash in March?
  10. Yep and just had a nice hailstorm. Cracked against the conservatory! Was not expecting it at all. My brother thought I was taking pictures outside and he came into my room and said he could see flashes outside. Went out and saw some IC lightning and distant rumbles N/NE
  11. Hello there, For tour 4 I have booked the BA0193 on 30th May. I have been told this is the ideal travel time and flight and the 'chaser' flight for tour 4. Bear in mind you will need to book a hotel for the night in Dallas before the official meet up/first chase day. The best western in East Irving is the one i have been told to go with as this is where the majority of chasers stay the night before.Return 11th June BA0192.
  12. Thanks for organising a great night Ian. Thanks to everybody for making me feel so welcome. See you in March or stateside!
  13. 2 questions... ND filters or a polarizing filter? Do I need a step-down voltage converter for my UK appliances once in the states? Cheers Lewis
  14. Just to let you between the banter on here that the ba0193 flight 30th may (tour 4) has been changed. It now flys out at 11:45 instead of 11:25. God knows why, just had an email from BA informing me. Lewis
  15. Personally I would set aside a few weeks in summer. When the models look good, get yourself across the channel. Was planning to do this with a fellow chaser this year for a couple of days. I'd say NE.
  16. lol! They said on five live news that they filed for bankruptcy protection "to restructure and reduce flight schedules". Basically they can't manage fuel prices and sell enough tickets! What's the betting BA tickets will sky rocket now?!
  17. Just checked BA prices for tour 4. Down £20 since I last checked.
  18. Sounds like an absolute nightmare that I would really get very stressed about. That's all you need when you are anticipating getting home. Bit the bullet and paid the extra £100 for the upgrade to BA. Likewise I did not realise until I had booked that the return flight was with AA. Will read things more carefully in the future. Lewis
  19. Thank you Tom. Due to what others have been saying about AA, I have made a change on my flights. I am not a great flyer and the thought of it being made worse by discomfort just worries me even more. Lewis
  20. are newbie chasers welcome along to this (London curry/drink)? Quite interested as it's only an hour or so from me. Lewis
  21. Ok so is the BA0192 on 11th June returning to Heathrow too early of a flight (allowing for travel from wherever we may be). I think the flight is around 5:30 Cheers Lewis
  22. I am actually considering changing the flight to the BA one now after reading these comments! Would cost me £100 + the extra £70 difference in price. I don't think it is worth the hassle and money really. Not a good sleeper on planes but may just pop a couple of pills lol!
