EasyJet had nothing under £100 since bookings opened for this time of year. One year I went for £25 return. Where have those flights gone?

I like to go.
Heard there will be rare bulbs available (crocus, colchicum, corydalis, juno & onco,...)

Are there by any chance some fine continental growers bringing their bulbs this year? ::) ;)

Ironic that it's a hoppable distance from across the Channel but not from Aberdeen :'( :'(
