Jamie got her passport back today with her schengen visa valid for 6 months, thought it might have been a bit longer but I suppose its about right as her passport runs out in 11 months.

But she was buzzing and now I have booked the flights and hotel for a 4 day stay in Paris to celebrate her 25th birthday in December got the flights for all 3 of us including baggage and insurance for £200 also a bargain 5 star hotel at Charles de Gaulle airport for £80 a night with just a short commute into Paris by train.

Then its off to Barcelona with flights for £34 return in January, that is a suprise for her, so happy right now...
