And that there are people who actually WANT to see your photos and hear your tales! . No doubt our family and friends are eternally grateful to the BB.

Hi Rex

I completely agree with all of your points concerning this site.

Agree to it all indeed..... everyone in there own way is a wealth of knowledge!!!

What I like, apart from all the great information, is that when I log in of a morning and find out what everyone one the other side of the world has been chatting about whilst I was asleep.

True for me too!

Agree with all those comments already made. But I also like the different ways BBers have of tackling luggage, clothes, optionals etc. We are not all the same & what works beautifully for one may be abhorrent to another, so seeing other ways is just great. You get to pick what works best for the way you like to travel

Hamlet,

I've been to Warwick Castle, but I don't recall if it was included or an optional. It was extraordinarily impressive, and certainly (IMO) worth any effort to visit.

Bob ~ I thought the United Nations facilitated cooperation and mediation, not bickering.

I feel that people who post here do so for the benefit of all travellers. I believe bickering is an unfair comment.

I don't spend nearly as much time here as I used to. I used to be an every day reader, and now it's around once a month. I just like being able to exchange ideas and experiences with fellow travel enthusiasts.

All of the above plus the fact that it is never boring. I can log on and have a chuckle when I feel low and sometimes I can log on and the topic of the day can get me thinking....

I am with you Jewel.

I log on every other day to see what's on offer and if there is anything I can respond too.

St Mike never fails to bring a smile to my face. I wish he and Mrs St Mike were on all of my tours. I'd love to meet a lot of BB members on my tours.

Aside from that, it is good to pick up the tips on offer. My trip is coming up soon, even though I have been on six now, I still look for more tips on how I can do things better.

I think the answer to all of our travel problems would be if the airlines and tour companies would allow us unlimited weight for our luggage, and a first class seat for everyone. (Dream on JDee, it is never gonna happen!!)

I love this site too. I log in every day just to see what is going on! Hope one day there will be a Trafalgar BB tour just as there has been one organised for Insight Tours.

A BB trafalgar tour! That would be great, count me in.

I love popping in to this BB for all the great advice and hearing what everyone is up to and the chance to lend a voice when needed.

If I don't get a daily fix, than I just get cranky...

Kitchen Wench: Back in 2003 (Yikes! Have I been hanging about here that long???), I organized a TT BB Tour to - guess where? I didn`t choose the destination, though, I swear! It was done by group consensus.
We did Real France. It was fabulous. Many of our group booked with a TA that gave us multiple special group discounts that we could stack on top of airline discounts. It was the least expensive trip we have ever done. Trafalgar gave us all a free optional dinner. We had a wonderful TD and had a great time.
Any time you want to arrange a trip to France, I could probably be persuaded to sign up.

Did anyone say eccentric. Oh well, thought somebody was calling my name.

K.Wench- Oh yes-me too!

BB tour, I'm in!
