Hi richard ,

Yes, I've had that.

What pigged me off was seeing the one, while we were halfway through our 12-hour delay stint at Gatwick in April, "x hours since you flew".

How fun!!! :purplejum That really is a nice little 'extra' to build the excitement.

[Simon Veness]

And what does it say now, Richard........?! :D

what time does walmart close? or the nearest supermarket to palm parkway?:happy-thumb

Wal-Mart never closes. :happy-thumb

You'll have a Goodings on Apopka-Vineland (just around the corner from Palm Parkway, turning left). I want to say it's 24 hours too, but I'm not sure. Either way, it should be open when you arrive.

Having said that, you might want to go just a tiny bit further (turn right on Apopka-Vineland instead of left and go about a block or two) and use the Winn-Dixie instead of Goodings. Their prices are slightly lower.

Just be aware, you're not going to find good fresh veg or fresh fruit at either. They sell both, but it's very hit-or-miss, quality-wise. :eek: The best fresh produce will be found at Whole Foods over on Sand Lake Rd. and Turkey Lake Rd. Wal-Mart's produce will pass in a pinch. :happy-thumb

If this is the Goodings at Crossroads then I'm sure it's 24hrs.

That's the one, TF! :happy-thumb
