Hi - thanks for the welcome! I've been very slack about getting back to this site- but here I am now!!
Going for 2 weeks 2-18 Nov and staying at Windsor Hills - decided off-site was a better option for me! Liked the idea of a condo with all that extra space...!!!
I'll be celebrating my 50th birthday over there, and so far have decided that that will be he day to visit MGM and see Fantasmic for the first time. I have heard it is fabulous, but it wasn't around when I first visited (80's sometime - can't remember exactly), and missed it the second time around in Orlando (2002) and at Disneyland (2005).
Got to make some reservations for a few dinners, too, but just have to work out the best time to call . One of the disadvantages of living here and wanting to holiday over there!!
Thanks for your offers of help - I may just be needing some of that as I get closer

At the moment (until mid August) if you ring when it is 9pm here on the East Coast it will be 7am in Orlando - time for reservations to open.

We always do the Fantasmic buffet when we want to see it so we do''t have to wait for 90 minutes.

Have you viewed the menus on http://www.wdwig.com ? (they have changed the name of the site but that link still works.)

We are in WDW for 23 nights in August/September we with dining so I got to pick 23 sit down meals free of charge. At this moment I have reservations for:

Le Cellier
Tony's Town Square
Donald's Breakfastosaurus
Whispering Canyon Cafe
Ohana (for dinner we love this one and then you can go to the beach at The Poly and watch the electrical water parade and the fireworks from teh MK)
