VEGAS

.......that makes 9 do i hear 10, going once, twice...

......3 times...............

The good news is I booked the Cirque tickets for the Tuesday night 9:30pm, we have front row tseats!!!!!!!

The not so good news is they were $165 each, but that ok because our winnings will pay for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Luke,

I spoke to Shazza and she said they would all love to go to Cirque and also thought David would love for them to do helicopter flight...if you like you could send info to us and we could send to them via email...they leave 1 week tomorrow...take off 17/9/07.She also said she would like to go to Letterman if possible..Bec said when they were in NY at times square they would be giving out tickets but you had to answer question about the show and she said but it is on after 12 a night in Aussie and they said bad luck we want people who know the show...hope we wont be expected to know...we might have to study up

Sorry Luke, we didnt reply to time..we are happy for early start...probably a good time before it gets too hot ,also will leave time for other things like shopping or relaxing by the pool...see I am thinking positively


On another matter...who will be wearing stockings and taking aspirin or injecting blood thinners before they fly???


Also what is opinion on travellers cheques/debit cards...other methods of getting hands on money???

Re Cirque the booking is via mgm website.

Re heli i am trying to swing a deal so will get back to you shortly.

I've got the drum on where to go for Letterman..so hopefully we can get tiks.

We'll be using debit and credit card, my opinion is travellers cheques not worth the time waste..

..and i wont be wearing stockings! (in public)

I wont be using credit cards, debit cards or cash. I will be just hanging around jackie and luke.

Good one Champ! I will be right there with you!! Looks like Cat enjoyed the hen's night. These are from Scarlett:twisted:

Hi the Heli tour is booked for all (9) of us for the 3rd October.

If the Woods are interested it is the Grand Canyon Picnic Tour through https://www.airvegas.com/. They are doing it for us at $299pp... I did hear a runour that Marty may shout this for all of us given we are all traveling so far...that is very generous can this be confirmed Marty?

Hi Luke,

thanks for doing all the organising and booking the helicopter trip and cirque tickets,please let us know how much we owe you...it must be quite a sum.Is it the early morning trip??I will pass the info on to the woods.

What is everyone doing re mobile phones??If we buy a sim card over there how will we get new phone numbers to other people...and Luke,will you two be taking a phone with your number with you...just wondering how we would contact you when we arrive .I guess if there is a problem we can communicate via the hotel

Bec what did you say the go was with DrPhil...Was it no jeans and dress in subdued colours like work clothes???

Yes Chez, no jeans and business attire. And no patterns, as they don't appear well on camera.

I have also just received confirmation for Sharon to join us, if you could pass it on to her. She may still be too busy to check the forum.

hi yes i booked the 9am tour...pay for it on the day.

i had to guess everyones weight as they require for the booking...please no one be offended if i got your weight wrong...oh dear this is a lose lose situation i think.................

we will have our mobiles so can use our UK numbers...

Hi Luke- maybe we could turn it into a game.... if you are within 2 KGs either side, you win and we pay you for the trip, but if you're WAY off, well, sorry- but you guys pick up the bill!!

What do you reckon, Marty?? Anyone??

sounds fair to me NOT

Yay! Have paid for Vegas (1st - 5th anyway) and have paid for Camden. Charlene could hardly understand a word i said so I just gave her my confirmation number and my credit card number. Great. The guy in Vegas must be more worldly as he had no trouble understanding me . Did I just offend anyone Champ?? Didn't mean to.

Our friends from Florida are going to join us sometime in Vegas and take Conrad riding at the Red Canyon (?).

Veronika's passport has arrived and we are ready to go!!!

Jacqueline - where are you ???????????????????????????????????

No Offence

Do you know how many blank stares I got after I spoke. And I don’t think it was because they had gotten lost in my eyes?

I'm one of the first to criticise the South’s inability to interpret anything that’s isn’t bluntly obvious. Just remember to talk slow, don’t use big words, smile at the end of every conversation and say Jesus or God bless as much as possible.

I hope Catherine continues to not look at the forum.

Hey Marty- I should be fine then- i am always saying "Jesus"...... however, the context may not be appropriate- Mum, what do YOU think??

Hey Gabby,
I'm here!
Where r u staying at?
Veronika would have to have the cutest passport ever!!

In reply to Ancy.....I could think of a lot of phrases less suitable than JESUS that you have used over time sweetheart.

Anyway I am trying to come to terms with the fact that I might NOT be coming at all.

Hoping for a better outcome from my Doctor on Friday....maybe i could bribe him???

Spoke to Frank tonight....he is usually very level headed ..and he suggested thinking like a man.....does that mean without emotion?

Marty understands, but I will feel a dreadful void...also....I will miss my little man for a MONTH.

Fingers crossed....

Marg that's no good at all.

I hope you're able to come, let us know what happens on the forum on Friday.

Been to see yet ANOTHER Doctor today and he said although I might suffer pain from the long flight there shouldn't be anything more sinister likely to occur.
SO I AM COMING...

Just hope my GP will prescribe some strong medication in case.

As Bec said today..."You would be in pain at home knowing what you are missing"...which is absolutely right.

Wonderful to have daughters and a son in law so keen to have me join their holiday even to the point of carrying my suitcases.

WELCOME CAT.. Hope you are not suffering to much from the trip.

Thanks to my lovely sister for the comments....I love you.

YAY GREAT NEWS MARG

If i were you i'd take advantage, go the whole hog, wheelchair and all

Sarah, would you be able to perform the same duties you did for Tony after Jack and Lukes wedding back at Wests...remember the wheelchair through the club with Tony sitting in it appearing to be a shrizzled up old man...guess he wont have to pretend now

Yeay that's great Margie! Can't wait to see you and everyone else!!!

We are down to hours and minutes on the count down!!

Just wanted to leave our number in case anyone wants to contact us over there etc!! It is:

+44 7931 173861

Happy Traveling!!
