Airport Parking Shop
Chilli Rating: 
These days it is becoming ever more popular to take the car to the airport and leave it parked in one of the purpose-built carparks, ready to meet you when you return. Airport Parking Shop allows you to book parking ahead, and has a remarkably useful feature that compares the costs at a wide range of carparks for each airport. You'd be surprised how much difference in price there can be, considering you're really just renting a couple square metres of tarmac.

travel-quest
Chilli Rating:
This directory lists activities, holiday ideas, speciality travel companies and adventure tours in the UK and around the world. It’s not the most modern of designs but they have a good database of sites organized into a wide variety of categories, so you might want to take a wee little look. The information on activity and adventure holidays is particularly good, and the site shows an pleasantly unhealthy interest in extreme sports.
