    There's an english pub on I94 i think it is that shows the matches..Im not really 100% sure about it, or where it is! But someone at work was telling me about it before..
    As for the baggage allowance..You best check with the airline..i cant remember to be honest..But i took one decent sized bag and another decent sized case!!

    hand-luggage rules are changing to be really strict apparently (grrr) so you might want to check that out. Baggage allowance usually depends on your airline- all the times I've travelled with big airlines before it's been a 2 bag, about 20kg allowance but I have no idea this time as I haven't got any details about the flight except for the times!!

    I'm flying with virgin and checked the info yesterday. with them you've got an allowance of 23kg that can be shared over two bags. The max anyone flying from UK can check-in is 32kg (due to health regs for people loading the bags!) - virgin only charge on extra £20 if your two bags equal more than 23kg - which isn't too bag because i know i will prob need the max of 32kg!

    More to the point... What about someplace that shows Scottish 1st division football (Even though they don't even show it Scotland!)? Can I go a whole year without seeing my beloved Dundee lie down to anyone and everyone (I still love them though)?

    regarding the baggage allowence with Virgin Atlantic (economy class):
    Two pieces of luggage per passenger, each weighing up to 23kg (51lbs). When added together, the three dimensions of any piece of luggage must not exceed 158cm (62in).
