Just wondered if people did the same thing after they have checked in for the flight to Florida.

I always like to have a look around WH Smiths and pick some girlie magazines to read on the journey.

We always do the same but skip the girly magazines in favour of a good book or a good magazine (or two).

Ju, im a bit like you, we like to browse around WH Smiths, drinks/mags.....mind you i also buy myself a good book to read on the plane and several for the whole holiday well before we go and put in case..... hubby Steve likes to look in the games/music shops....dont know the name not usually interested at this stage...... then we sit and people watch, time seems to go so fast really that i couldnt tell you what we did last time....one trip i spent after checking in, lying on a chair with full blown migraine and vomiting!! soon went once we took off!!

Now why am I not surprised

We tend to have a bit of brekkie and then I have to have a look round waterstones for a book for the flight/ pool. If we have checked in online or twilight check in we do not always have time though so then it is straight to the plane and on our way

breakfast for us too. I usually look after the bags, while they browse around the shops. I either have already filled in the waiver forms before hand or I fill them in before we get on the plane. If hubby is with us, it usually means at least 20 phone calls before we board.

Breakfast for us too then a walk around the shops. My daughter starts clock watching if we sit for too long so I normally always bring lots of change and put her on the dance maching for a while to try to pass the time. We have a ten and a half hour flight to mexico and my daughter watches the time the whole time we are onboard so will be taking plenty of games for her.

If just the two of us travelling, go to the escape lounge at Manchester Airport. If not, buy a book or two and then food.

We always go for a slap up breakfast at Manchester Airport. We like to start our Holiday early and arrive in plenty of time at the terminal.

What a good idea. I hate filling in the waiver forms on the plane as I usually end up filling them in for all our travel party. Where do you get the forms from?

Sausages!

It's tradition. I think in some places it might even be the law!!!

Eggs, bacon, beans, tomato, mushrooms, brown sauce and occasionally toast sometimes figure in the plan; but the sausages are the main event.

Recently we have come across a bit of a sausage dilemma. The sausages in the Sofitel at Gatwick are wonderful, but that's breakfast at the hotel before walking back to the terminal. So the dilemma is whether it would be rude to have more sausages once through security ... or whether it would be rude not to!

Steve.
