Hi all, Thanks so much for all the suggestions, it's been really interesting reading. Regarding Prague, this is the site that got me edgy: http://www.czechsite.com/gettingthere.html (particularly what they wrote under the heading 'train') at http://www.czechsite.com/ (main page)
However, it does sound like somewhere worth going to (wish I had a friend to go with though!), and I think I'll give the flight centre a call to see how my options look. It's so exciting!
