Re: Best Bargain
Managed to but a flight to Sardinia to see my friend a couple of years ago from Ryanair. It cost me £21 including tax, plus I stayed at her place for a week, cheapest holiday I ever had. ;D

Re: Best Bargain
Best bargain?
Wedding licence for the second wife.
(Had to put that in, she told me that if I didn't then the nuptuals would be cut off)

Re: Best Bargain
I coughed up for both licences (twice maried).
Didn't realise that it was only a down payment though.

Re: Best Bargain
Now THATS an idea!
Often thought that they should be like a car tax disc, you get to renew it every couple of years or so, and perhaps if its getting a bit knackered - well you just don't renew it and go find another one.
What a great idea!

Mick i agree with you there.Wifes are like cars really.Nothing wrong in driving a good old reliable Ford, However sometimes its nice to take a Ferrari out for a test drive now and again.
