Travel Tips

We're looking for Top Tips for Travelling!

I was out at the airport last Saturday, at 5AM! I thought it was busy but really that was nothing. Between 5.30 and 6AM it was bedlam. So, first top tip - leave loads of time, because you may have checked in online, you may be confident your bags aren't over the weight restrictions (Balanzza anyone??) but that is what everyone is doing. The shortest queue was for people who were checking in the old fashioned way!

And wait till you see the queues to get through security. In fairness, they did seem to be doing their best, but there are still only 2 security entrances, no matter how many people show up.

Anyone else with any top tips, let us know.

Have a great holiday when you do travel

St. Swithin's Day

St. Swithin's Day if thou dost rain
For forty days it will remain
St. Swithin's Day if thou be fair
For forty days 'twill rain nae mair

That rhyme has been around since Elizabethan times and each July 15th we still look out and wonder are we in for forty days of rain or sun.
As this year seems likely to be chalked up to rain AGAIN, we are trying to cheer ourselves up here in the Pressieport office by thinking about our Summer Holidays. Luckily for us, we are paid to spend time surfing the web - strictly for research you understand, so we can make sure we're bringing all of you the best choice of fun, handy and original gift ideas!

We've found quite a few gadgets that we're pretty sure you'll want for yourselves and not to give away. Check our out new X-mini speakers - they may be small but they're very LOUD!

And for anyone who really loves to travel, the World power adaptor is a must - one adaptor, 4 connections, 150 countries... you know it makes sense!

Fingers crossed for Sunshine!
