Thanks all for your continued support and thoughts here. We called MyTravel head office this morning to be told "but it's been downgraded to a cat 2"....we soon put the girl right and the best she could do was tell us to call back on Friday. They don't have a clue what's happening. OH's guess is a delay at Glasgow for around 5 hours or so depending on when she's due to hit then a nice slow flight over and if the worst comes to the worst dump us in Washington or something for a few hours anything just so they won't have to pay us cancellation money. We've tried to get an extension on the holiday but unless we come back through an English airport it's no can do, we'd consider that but the car will be left at the airport here so it probably wouldn't work. I'm quite happy as long as we get there, I don't mind hunkering down in our hotel if we have to, taking video and lots of photos etc. Will keep y'all updated thanks again everyone. Boro dave you go tomorrow yeah, safe journey and enjoy yourself, see you there!!!!!

Ah flip, any idea Steve what time on Saturday?? I know that's a nightmare of a thing to even contemplate working out and it's a stupid question really it's just that our plane will be landing in Sanford at 6pm. Don't want a rocky landing. :unsure:

I've seen it rain for two weeks straight in Florida before so I'd rather have a holiday spoiled for a hurricane as opposed to just pesky rain with no high winds or thunder or eeek even a tornado ya beauty!!! Gotta get something out of it. :lol:

Thanks everyone, I'll be tuning in here regularly. My name is mud in our household at the moment OH and teen are blaming me because for months I've been saying it would be some experience to go through a hurricane and now we're due to go there is the possiblity!!!! boro_dave are you going to the horror nights??? We went last year and it's fabulous fun, might not happen on Sunday though eh??? Mondy that looks very interesting thanks, it's the waiting that's killing me I've got to say.

Hi everyone I've been lurking around here for months and have been glued to threads during hurricanes in particular Katrina. This hurricane to be is no different except my family and I are due to fly out to Orlando on Saturday. I'm crapping it but that's mainly due to the worry of the holiday being cancelled and we're only going for a week. I've been in and out of here like a yoyo looking for updates etc. To the other guy going to Florida I feel your apprehension!!! I'm hoping that it misses Florida altogether. We're going specifically for Halloween Horror Nights at Universal one of our nights is Sunday 23rd and the other is Thurs 27th. Maybe we won't see it at all. Fingers crossed anyway. Keep up the good work guys, this truly is a great site with some very talented people.
