I could go on forever and that would be rather dull.

Some fab highs, I loved looking at the photos of you both. My favourite is the one in front of tower of terror where it looks like you are punching yourself in the face. If I remember correctly you said that was you pretending to be scared, it still looks like you're a bit cross with yourself to me.

Interesting about the stats showing less attractions this time around, but distance covered being slightly more. As you said it's all part of the compromise isn't it? We only ever go in the school summer holidays, it would be utterly ridiculous for us to moan that it's busy and hot...

Well, I'm sad that this is over. I've thoroughly enjoyed reading your report. Have fun planning your next trip and I will look forward to the conclusion of the trilogy.

How could I have forgotten "parage"? So true! And also yes to the late starts, haha. We kicked ourselves for being "lazy" on numerous occasions when in fact we were getting up earlier than we would do on a working-from-home day.

Ha, yes, the ToT photo is definitely a classic and not one that will be making it onto the new mantelpiece. Who knew I was so...handy? Not me.

I knew from pretty early on that we were doing fewer rides this time around due to our self-imposed decision not to wait any longer than 30 minutes for anything. I was a bit sad we missed out on Test Track this year though and also a lot at Universal.

Thank you for reading along and all your great comments. Looking forward to meeting up in April - I promise to keep my fists to myself.

Thank you for taking the time to write your report, Helen, it's kept me entertained on these winter evenings with many lol moments.

For the Bingo - having the queue to enter a ride or show stopped by the CM just when you would have been next in/on.

Your new family members are adorable; hope you all settle well together.

Looking forward to your pre trip! Xxxx

I'm reading at work (the one day I'm here this week before swanning off to DLP on Wednesday, wahoo!), and had to come up with a work-appropriate reason for why I was cackling when I got to the lantern one brilliant.

I love a proper round up with stats and sage advice about avoiding yellow puddles, thank you so much for slogging through this for us all. Looking forward to the 2018 installment.

I told him that a montage had been requested and he pulled a rather confused face but let me get on with it. Characteristic of our marriage, I feel.

You're welcome - glad you enjoyed it and thank you for being such a supporter.

Well, have a wonderful time in DLP! I am very envious! Give Mickey a swat for me.

Ha, thank you. He'll be pleased you said that. Lucky me getting to look at the many faces every day.

They are very cute, which helps as they are completely destroying the house!

Thanks for reading along with me, really pleased you enjoyed the report.

Your two new residents are just the most beautiful looking cats and I love that your other two are ignoring them - cats with attitude are just the best!

Looking forward to reading all about your next trip

Wow, thank you - high praise indeed!

They're lovely little kittens and definitely keeping us on our toes which is why there was a bit of a delay in getting this post up here. I'm hoping the other two will mellow in time...
