Sheesh - only 2 days and you are impatient??! RELAX - sometimes you will get an answer right away, but many British (and European) businesses take more time to answer than you may be used to in the States. If you expect things to always happen fast on your trip you will likely be disappointed.

Ray's always gotten back to me within 48 hours - relax! He might be on vacation and some one else is taking care of the business while he is gone, a lot of people do not jump on the e-mail the moment it arrives, espiecally if the booking is for several months upstream. I know when we were there in April he had just returned from Thailand "on holiday". We've never had a problem with him and have used him several times and recommended him to others who also never had any problems. I have always contacted him a month or so before and the followed up again a week or so before departure. If you really worried give him a call.

Andy, He is very reliable. If you don't here from him in a week, I'd email again. I heard from him in 48 hours.<BR>By the way, he doesn't take credit cards as payment (at least he didn't last year). You can secure your deposit with one, but payment is cash.

Er,... like in a city of 6 million inhabitants, we would all know everyone else's holiday arrangements? Try searching for another transfer company - there are dozens of others. The Ray Skinner "fixation" on this site is nothing short of ridiculous.
