We used to holiday around Aberystwyth a few years ago. Borth beach is still one of my favorite places, getting fish and chips from the shop there and sitting in the car (too cold to get out

) watching the wind blow across the sand. Not sure on a holiday this year as I have had a "danger of redundancy" notice.

Planned so far - one week from now, Dublin courtesy of Ryanair at a total cost of £0.08 for four of us

(flight only mind you). Just a one day thing - fly out on Tuesday and fly back on Wednesday.

April - Shifnal for a day or two.

September - Egypt for a fortnight All Inclusive. Sharks Bay at Sharm el Sheikh.

3 weeks in Florida

2 in the parks, on one on the beach in Sanibel

Booked it before the current "crisis" been thinking to cancel but if I get made redundant the redundancy money will help

.
Might not be able to afford it again. and we haven't had a Warm holiday since 2000.
Sounds a stupid and frivolous thing to do, but if I lose my job I know I will regret not going forever.....

Same problem I had with centre parcs, like to relax on holiday but something would be nice.
At the same time found Haven parks too full of people on a mission to drink there own weight in lager before 4 in the afternoon, and forget they had kids causing havoc, shame really put me off, Went to one in north wales (hafan y mor I think) that was lovely

same as the last 3 years sitting at home, cant afford holidays

10 days in April, 10 days in May, 17 days in July, 10 days in September, 10 days next January......

Bought a house in the Haute Garonne (France) 2 years ago and planned to take early retirement and move there this April.

Since then that nice M Sarkosy has changed health care arrangements and now the pound v euro.

So for now it is a holiday home. Before the 75 had a 300TDi Disco, so the journey makes it a lot more comfortable and cheaper.
