Guys,. .. .Many thanks for the words of encouragement - it's great to know that we are all in this together.. .. .Billy fish - My preferred option is Oxford mainly because my wife works at Heathrow and so I hope to trade our house for something smaller within commuting distance of Oxford for me and Heathrow for her. Prices are pretty high in that part of the world but we're looking. I'm booked on the Cabair open day because that's a contender too. I have ruled out Jerez, Michigan and KLM because to attend any of those would mean living away for well over a year and I think I'm asking enough of my wife already!. .. .Where are you guys going?. .. .Desk-pilot - but hopefully not for much longer!
