A HUGE thank you to two people who got us to and from Manchester Airport thus making our holiday even more worthwhile. Big thanks first to Julie (Dowman) who zipped us up to the airport and astonished me in particular with just how much you can fit into a new Mini.

Then an equally Huge thanks to Richard (Jones) who was not only the first smiling face we saw when we landed. But then brought us back through some spectacular English scenery explaining that he 'didn't do motorways much' And quite frankly when you can get somewhere equally as quickly but with great views and a more interesting trip then I am totally in agreement with him.

So a hearty recommendation for all. If you need to get to an airport then do think seriously about asking if there is anyone in the Skills Exchange who would be interested. Apart from anything else it tops and tails any break you might have.
