I took a 3 week holiday to Australia (from Cumbernauld) in 1973 and apart from a return holiday in 1975 I have not been back - not for anything but family and work commitments.
Have now been trying to make the trip home for the last 5 years but dramas ensue and here I stay.
Cross fingers, and everything else, that I make it in 2011.
Found your site while talking about Scottish Toffee to a couple of work coleagues. I'll be back to browse some more.

Thanks Ian.
Sorry but I had to laugh when I read this. That was some holiday.
It reminds me of the story that some Celtic fans went to Lisbon for the European Cup Final in 1967 ..... and haven't managed to get back yet!
