Bit scary this - my first overseas trip by air on my own! At 47! I’ve always had someone in tow to rely on for finding my way around, or picking up things from hotel rooms when I have left them, and there’s no one but myself to rely on.

All good trips start with a drive from home to Heathrow. This one included some unusual challenges along the way!

This trip is another one based on the trending good value trips, starting in Dublin and ending in Spain. I don't quite understand whether these cheaper trips are an anomaly, or someone actually decides this sort of trip is a good idea.

Final segment of our holiday: our drive back home via a quick stop to pick up some basic supplies. Home to the moggies!

Our trip back home started with a flight from Toronto back to Heathrow. It was an opportunity to check out the BA Plaza Premium Lounge as well.

Back in the air, to continue adding to my Tier Point pot. Somewhere new for me this time: Tucson in Arizona. The only time I have ever come across Tucson in the past is courtesy of Chandler in Friends.

It felt great walking into T5 and down to The First Wing (TFW). It feels like my second home. For Vick, it's likely a distant ninth!

Love it! Going on holiday again! This is what life is all about. Well, apart from the fact that we couldn't smuggle Mango and Chutney into our hand luggage, so that we could share our holiday experience with them.

Another one of our road trips around North America. This time it's Canada rather that the US. We have an 8-stop out and back trip starting in Toronto, heading nort-east to Montreal and finally up to Quebec City.
