Sorry for delay in posting this but we got home sometime around 5pm. we stopped in Bristol for sunday roast and pint of bitter. We had a smashing night and thanks to Ian for arranging it.

Still laughing about straying into a gay pub the advert said Camping Night at the Kings Cross, but there wasn't a tent in sight.

Is the aticle referring to 'the' Michael Fish?! Is he a storm chaser?

[Paul Sherman]

Hi Ben

We took Michael Fish out Storm Chasing in 2008 and he is indeed joining us again on Tour 4 this year in 2011 from June 1st until June 12th And "yes" it is The Michael Fish from the BBC

Fantastic! I've heard his name before on these boards but assumed (wrongly) it was a different Michael Fish.

Good on him, I hope he has a great time with you guys. Wish I could be going!!! If it wasn't for my pending wedding and precarious situation at work i'd be booking my place on a tour right now.

What are people paying for flight prices then? I'm looking at paying £560 From Glasgow on tour 3. Would be good if anyone else could let me know what they are paying? Think i'll be going out a day early, may go and have a look about Dallas on the morning we meet everyone if nothing much is happening.

[Arron]

Mine was roughly £450 in the end from Heathrow, although I did book a while back and through expedia.com in $ Might be worth a look?

Good plan, will look into that thanks I think the flights from Glasgow to London are coming in quite expensive, ah well. Will need to suck it up and pay for it probably :lol:

[Cookie]

Am I the youngest going out this year?

[Ross B]

Ross, same plan here, I am going out a day early and coming back a day later, just so I dont miss anything or to investigate dallas and get some shopping done!

PAT WE ARE TALKING PHYSICAL not MENTAL AGE HERE

[dogs32]

yet more worry..

Spain going on strike around the time Im there...

Cant afford any delays as I have only 20 hrs to get to Heathrow

a very concerned Pat!!!!!!!!!

will have to get netweather's mobile no. for the States just in case Im delayed for hrs or days

It hasnt happened yet but watching with concern

if the worse comes to the worse will cancel Spain as this is covered by insurance....

the problem lies if we take the gamble and go and end up delayed!!!!!!!

this would mean buying another flight to the USA... not good...
