My first holiday abroad for 14 years, to Gran Canaria.
I'm not looking forward to the flights or the heat, or the trips up and down the cliff to the beach.
I'm hoping the complex's pools and food will make up for it. |

Yeah, Lake District is beautiful. I always think I’ll climb to the top of a high hill but I can’t be faffed after about 20 minutes of walking. |

"Not long back from a long weekend in Somerset, then thats it until September when I;m off to Bordeaux and Paris fantastic - I go to France several times a year. What do you plan to do in Paris?"
Not sure yet, we're running Marathon du Medoc with it's 23 wine stops in Bordeaux and the day after catching a train to Paris but how much we do there will depend on how shattered we are! |

They are stunning areas, we hope to move there one day but probably just a pipe dream |

Nope, big burly men, armed with semi-automatics.
Genuinely my idea of heaven |

I've got a small house in France so spend all summer there but don't really consider it a holiday, just a second home. I don't like very hot weather so can't wait for the rain to re-fresh the air.
I then go somewhere for xmas/new year to escape the cold - last year it was southern India, this year Morocco. |

"We are moving to the seaside, unfortunately holidays are on hold for this year!
I live by the seaside.. it’s just not the same as a holiday  "
You are quite right but money is being redirected at the house and long haul trips are the price thats being paid lol |

Alas, no actual holidays have been planned. But weekend trips do seem to be happening a fair bit of late. An unplanned early start to my long weekend in South Devon has been most welcome though |

"What's a holiday? "
Same here. Haven't had one in years, starting to feel it now though. Just need to get away but can't!
Working all through the school holidays too, missing out on time with my youngest and they grow up far too quick to miss out |

No holiday for me this year 
I just can't afford it.
I'm using my holiday days to have shorter weeks work and longer weekends which is nice.
But I'd love to travel around the USA if anyone fancies taking me |

I like the Second World War stuff in France, loads of museums and bunkers and gun emplacements plus D-Day beaches. One of my ancestors got killed at Anzio so I’d like to go there. Pompeii is mindnumbling awesome. Like timetravel. |

Just tenerife at the moment in June as it was sons choice for when he's got his GCSEs done with. He was given a budget and found the holiday.
Will probably do a UK break and maybe France in the summer |
