Now it's June and summer is here where is everyone off on holiday? I've got 10 days booked in Egypt end of the month.... Can't wait to get away.
 
tassos was nearly booked but it looks like we are not going as of what is happening in Greece
 
Going British this year, down to ilfracombe for a week in August

Off to Arizona next year,to suss out our potential emigration to warmer climbs
 
Week in Tenerife at the end of the month or early July. Then 3 weeks to Australia end of October.
 
Back to Tuscany this year to stay with some Italian friends up in the mountains. Quiet, peaceful, great food and lots of superb wine. I can't wait.
 
turkey for a week in july then a week in our newly bought algarve apartment in august, then cyprus in october then christmas at the algarve

Obviously paying you too much in the training centre then Kirk:wink_smile:

Seriously though, if our lad was a tad older then we would go away more often.

On that note anyone taken their 19 month olds on a plane? Our boy suffers a bit with one of his ears, and I dont think we can put him through it, just for our pleasure

we have twins (who will be 11 on tuesday) and they have been on a plane every year since they were 13 months old, early on we went on shorter flights to Majorca and menorca and they were no prob at all, they took to flying from a very early age, haha although i do remember peoples faces as we walked up the aisle towards them having this great fear on their faces that we were going to sit down next to them with 2 babies, and the look of joy as we went past them, i also remember jack when he was about 6 talking to a woman across the aisle who was pertified of flying and was holding onto her husbands arm in a vice like grip before we took off, jack said to her in all honestly in an attempt to make her feel better " if you are scared you should ask to sit up the back, cause its a fact that an aoerplane NEVER reverses into a mountain", haha i honestly thought both her husband and i were going to pass out with laughter, but she just didnt see the funny side
re holidays, we are fortunate enough now to be able to have a few a year, we have both worked hard enough over the years and its now time to slow right down and enjoy ourselves, and without wishing our lives away our daughter gets married in july and i am desperate for her to have a kid right away so i can be a grampa as well, that will give me the excuse i need to go down to 2 days a week working

Your behind the times mate, advert in the Sun this week, (so it must be true), offering training for plumbers, sparks, tilers etc with potential earnings of £60k a year.
 
We'll be doing our usual week in a caravan in September. Mind you if work stays as slow as it is at the moment I might be living in a caravan by then. Anyone want their driveway tarmacking?
 
Just moved house so it feels like a holiday already.

None booked this year (first time for a while).

Think we're going to Newcastle at end of June for a couple of days.
 
Got nothing booked, cant afford much. I have about 5 quotes for new boilers outstanding. If I get them all I will certainly be jetting off somewhere.
 
Mablethorpe is probably better, less chance of contracting Montezuma's revenge IMO.

Only cos them type of bugs don't survive at them low temperatures! Don't forget the thermals.

Who needs thermals lad, a good rub down with a quart of goose grease does the trick.
 
Haven't had a holiday for two years now. Bought our first house last year, and have two young kids. So despite not earning bad money, it's still always very tight.

This year it's a toss up, new bathroom or holiday. Think holiday will win. We're probably going to go somewhere warm over Christmas for a week or two....if we can afford it. I'd like to go to the Algarve.

My money is on bathroom. Well, that's what my missus is spending my money on :(
 
3 week 5 days 4 hours till me and the lads (34) go ibiza our lass goes next week so double bonus , then tegypt later in year , plus camping in uk all summer
 
You can't go wrong with Egypt for the money and very easy scuba diving as well.

Going for two weeks again in August, 5* all inclusive, diving for 3 or 4 days,

Best thing about diving in Egypt at the moment is that the trouble has put a lot of people off, the big stuff has started to return. Had an amazing experience playing with 5 dolphins last time I dived there.

Try and go every year to Egypt, excellent value for money.
 
been a few times but i couldnt handle its summer hear usually go October or January
 
Our lass agreed to me going to Benidorm for a stag do as she thought hen do was in Magaluf. Turns out hen do was at Butlins.:shades_smile:.Nearly wet myself
 
Back from stag do in Benidorm.Stag in hospital. Craziest, funnyest 4 days of my life. What appens in Benedorm stays in Benedorm
 
Cheers watertight lol.
I just read the article, I don't plan on visiting political gatherings of any kind of other demonstrations... Plus were not reporters so I guess that goes in our favour :)
As long as I get a minimum of 2 camels they can take her lol.
