Babelfish has this down as "My air cushion vehicle is full Aale". [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rotflmmfao.gif[/img]
Reminds me of an article I once read about a Portuguese chap who decided to write a useful phrase book for Portuguese visitors to England. Unfortunately he didn't have a Portuguese to English dictionary, but he did have a Portuguese to Spanish dictionary and a Spanish to English dictionary. So he dragged his phrases through both, resulting in a some fantastic translations. The book was a huge hit due to its comedy value. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rotflmmfao.gif[/img]
You can try the same through Bablefish.

Well, I'd rather translate it to "... full of eels", but that does not improve my understanding significantly [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.gif[/img]

It's a lot easier to sort out now rather than in the bar on the first night [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/drinks.gif[/img] Rather than post them directly onto the site, do you want to PM me your contact details and then I'll PM all the numbers in one go to everyone who PM'd me so we all have everyone's numbers?
Obviously, if you'd rather just share your numbers amongst the people you're travelling with then fair do's, just sort it out amongst yourselves.

Hi Matlock, did you get my PM re phone numbers? No panic, just want to make sure I get folks numbers if possible. Cheers, Paul.

The contact list has gone out by PM to all those who wanted to be included. If you asked to be added & haven't received it, let me know. Can you check your entry and let me know if any errors have crept in.
