We did pay for first class on for the Avanti West portion, but it was worth every penny. (Or am I supposed to say worth every p now?)

Glad to hear you arrived safe and well. Also, for your information : Galleons: The primary unit of currency, typically made of gold. One Galleon is worth 17 Sickles.
