An amenity kit that you put away in a drawer then ten years later ask, "why have I got that?"
An all in one suit you can use for overalls when decorating.
But most important: Memories. Those you can treasure forever.

getting very excited here too going UC out and sadly EC home from vegas. What dates you going? is it customary to offer the CH to people on here via the guest pass? Everyones been really helpful so if anyone is flying out 31st May to vegas in PE let me know (know its along shot)

Offering to guest someone into the CH is entirely down to you and is neither required or expected. It is your decision and some people do and some don't and every now and then there is a heated debate about the whole guesting in issue,

If you complete details for your flight(s) in the Itineraries forum you are able to indicate on there if you wish to offer guest entry when you are visiting the CH (or not!).

Out of interest has anyone had their lounge invitations taken up since VS changed the rules and insisted on guests being on the same flight? I haven't ...

I was very lucky enough to have taken up Trevski very generous off of CH passes before they changed the rules. I always offer mine out, never had any takers.

I'm sure I'll be feeling your excitement in early April when my flight approaches. Although I'm no UC newbie, it's been a couple of years at least, and I've never gone UC for pleasure, nor in an LGW config 744. I'll be making damn sure to milk every moment of it. Not sure my family would go for more than a couple of hours in he CH though...

No bits & pieces worth bringing home these day imho, I still have a stock on the old VS silver pens at home, used to get pick up the occasional handful from lounges & on flight

Only adding to this......a few menus that you stole, photographed at home for your TR and then they sit on your desk for a year (or two).
