Nah, I have that t-shirt. It is the pressure levels on the up and downward parts of air travel that are a problem besides the ground level stressed. Steph

Airports are stressful places at the best of times and you need to be in the full of your health to navigate through them and survive the conditions imposed by the flight. The risks far outweigh any benefits. And anyway, I'm quite sure Alexis and James would rather have you safe than sorry! You could always drive south to visit me instead! :D Grannymar

Insurance Co won't cover me for health issues. Flying not good for me. Don't worry I am not pregnant! :roll: @Baino - They will have a lovely day. @Nick - It is one thing taking chances here at home, total other ball game in another country.

Your doctor sounds a bit strict! But perhaps they'll be sending you a video? Or at least a piece of the wedding cake? Grannymar, it’s a shame you couldn’t attend. Your doctor sounds a bit strict!

Last time I went for a wedding on that side of the pond. Doctor's orders included not travelling alone, wheelchair at airports, no driving or sight seeing State Side! @Magpie - 'she’s as nutty as a fruit cake' ~ sounds like me then! :roll: @Darlene - It sounds like pure luxury! @Ian - This Boston is in Massachusetts, USA. @Nick - It is the wedding and the people I am thinking about.

I love weddings and would be disappointed to miss one. Especially if someone was putting me up in The Four Seasons hotel. Sorry you were unable to attend.

I wish the couple every happiness. Sorry you couldn't go GM! They will have to do what my two did...they had their main nuptials in the states and then when they came home...well it was home for Trist., they had other parties for those who couldn't travel over. I got to go to some of those as well. I’ve got an ex colleague in the Boston area…she’s as nutty as a fruit cake, a wonderful artist.

Apparently the girlie shopping's very good but I wouldn't know about that. Of course with the credit crunch people are more likely to be shopping at Junction One nowadays.
