It'a official....

Humberside is an exotic location!!...that is the area now known as North Lincolnshire and East Yorkshire. And why? Well KLM want to charge from 4508NOK for return for flights between Oslo and Humberside airport, that's why! It is cheaper to get to Beijing, China 3333NOK, Boston, USA 3651NOK and Orlando 4332NOK, than hop across the North Sea! Where KLM get their prices from I don't know! But it is safe to say, I am not willing to pay such a price for return tickets to UK! Oskar and I are "fortunate" and booked sale tickets from Sandefjord to Manchester via Amsterdam for 36ooNOK!. We are coming over at the beginning of August. Unfortunately, Ryanair don't fly anywhere near Hull (Liverpool, Stansted, Birmingham, Prestwick), so we have no choice. We can't even get a ferry from Kristiansand to Newcastle either:(

I've spent a lot of time browsing airline websites over the past week..firstly for the above mentioned trip and also because Scrap-a-Ganza have provisionally mentioned their next event in Haarlem between 14th-16th November! Lucky old KLM seem likely to take my money again as I can't find cheaper or more convenient flights (although 06.15am take-off after 1hr45 min drive to airport isn't convenient) Also there is no ferry from Norway to Netherlands either. Someone mentioned the great price from Hull to Rotterdam........wrong time, wrong place;)

Just to add..still having PC problems..keeps crashing with or without external hard-drive, where my photos are stored. I hate making picture less posts...sorry.
