Thanks!;) I hate this cough -- hope it goes away soon -- may opt for some cough syrup in order to sleep!:rolleyes:

So how hard\expensive is it to travel from England/Scotland to Ireland.
LCC carriers the way to go?
Or are there other means? Ferry\ship?

Publix makes some good cakes, but not as good as Costco.

If you've not had a Wegmans' cake you need to get one. Their ultimate chocolate cake is no exaggeration. :-: The carrot cake is pretty good too, but I wasn't a huge fan of the white cake (though I can see some folks liking that). :-:

Can't blame them. They don't concern themselves with places on the map that they don't fly to. I heard the agents get docked if they ask for an atlas with all the pages in it.

I would go with LCC. I've done Ryan Air from Sweden to Ireland and as long as you don't go over their weight limit on your bags, you're fine. Their planes are clean and their FAs are nice. They offer BOBs.

Good Evening again, Box. Just finished up a late dinner - Flat iron steak sandwich with spinach, tomato, avocado and fresh mozzarella on a crusty multigrain roll with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. Yummeh. I'm starting to get into this cooking thing.

On first look, not a bad trade. Devs give up Oduya, Bergfors, Cormier and a first rounder. However, Kovalchuk just turned down a 100M offer from ATL, so this is starting to look like a rental to me.

Big trade indeed - read on Blackberry but wasn't announced in seating bowl. Has to have been on telecast.

Kovalchuk was unhappy in ATL, and it would not surprise me if he pissed in Don Waddell's Cheerios by signing a lower offer from NJD over the summer. If it is a playoff rental, the kids are a steep price to pay and it's a calculated gamble that a roster shakeup will lead to a Cup this year.
