Who said anything about the wife going to Czech....she'll be happy to have me out of the way about for a couple days so she can get into the "gritty conversations" with her sisters in Wiltshire...meanwhile I'm motoring through Brussels and jetting down the Autobahn through Frankfurt, Nuremburg and beyond

Even better; Mid week round trip airfare late June/early July is only@ $120 from Gatwick to Prague vs 700mi/1125km and $175 or more in fuel each way[X(]
