Thanks for all your replies (some, I have to say, seem to take the aggresive response to answering my post - not sure why - it was only a simple question for input - but oh well) but as I said, thanks. I know all the fors & against & believe me, I know about living life to the full (I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer 6 years ago at the tender age of 38 -all good now, touch wood). I love Bali & I know the locals are the ones suffering. I know there are threats everywhere (although I have to say, when sitting in a local restaurant here I'm not worried about people coming in and leaving a backpack filled with a bomb) so you have all given me something to think about and for that I thank you. All the best
