Anyone planning a summer holiday yet?
As chav as it sounds I will probably take the little ones on a sun holiday.... again!
Shoot me now.
I'd rather poke my eyes out with a fork but the children love it, and I manage to scrape by for a few days.
Living in a plastic box for several days isn't much of a holiday for me, but by maximizing my time spent outside, and the small time spent inside drinking beer...... I manage to get by ok.
Also my parents have invited us to Lanzarote but as I have never been, I have no idea what to expect other than people calling it Lanza - groty!
So has anyone made or started making plans for a summer holiday yet?

Cancun.... nice. The grandparents (in law) went there several years ago. I remember being amazed by a video of a mahoosive crab scuttling across the road while they sat and ate an evening meal.

We're off to lanzarote this year. My other half does all the planning, all I need to know is where and when the plane leaves.
Looking through brochures bores the hell out of me. They all look the same anyway, and when you do get there it's too bloody hot. I hate hot weather and sprawled out on the beach makes no sense to me what so ever, I rent a brolly and hide under it all day.
We'll probably have a sun holiday too, suits me fine.

Already booked ours too.
Freebie to Barbados in May

If I can fit it in around work, we'll also have a week skiing in Austria sometime in Feb.
