Noooo. Who is going to sunbathe with us if you don't come!
My Wife likes setting up your sun loungers as you know. Also your Wife will be pleased to know I have bought new bathers so wont have a repetition of what happened last time.

Okay Tom. We won’t make any hasty decisions on selling up until we’ve checked out your new bathers
Given that we’re swerving the parks in September, we’ve decided to ditch BWV to stay at OKW. We only stay at BWV because of it’s proximity to Epcot and DHS. Tell Mrs Morrow that we’ll be needing her sun lounger services on 12 Sept. Usual time and place |

If you look at it differently it still works out as roughly $2.50 a day which is a bargain.
APs are not designed for us here in the UK who probably only go a maximum of 6 weeks a year. |

Even at 6 weeks it works out at around $17 a day inc tax which is not that bad really. It's the upfront cost that is v hard to swallow, I wish they did monthly payments like Universal.
The exchange rate is still killing us, it needs to get back up over 1.5, fat chance of that happening anytime soon though!

The higher they go the better as far as I am concerned. Far to many people (locals) with passes filling the parks. Epcot festivals at the weekend are rammed with pass people!

I agree. Despite the price of the AP rocketing over the last few years, it is still fabulous value if you live locally, and love Disney.
Also, if we still smashed the parks as we used to (and as Tom Morrow and his Tomettes still do ), we would still splash out. However, based on our more laid back approach to the parks, we can’t make it pay for us at £73 per day of usage. It remains to be seen whether we change our tune after our parkless trip to Disney in September |

I remember the days of $2.10 to the £1 back in Nov 2007 when we first considered and decided against DVC.
By the time we finally took the plunge and purchased our first DVC in 2010, the rate was $1.57 to the £1 When we did an add on in 2014 it was $1.67 to the £1. I don’t see those heady days returning anytime soon |
