Summer holidays - will you be having one?

The Pembrokeshire Coast Path is absolutely amazing. You will have a fantastic time. It does rain a lot but the scenery is still lovely when it is, so long as you have decent waterproofs it'll be fun.

Not so much a summer as an autumn holiday, two weeks in Russia in September, all paid for so just travel to the airport and spending money to sort...and getting my tush in gear learning more of the language!

Damn right it is, there are some truly beautiful places around here and theres some real cheap weekend holiday cottages/accom available too.

Im off to centre parcs in Jan, booked cheaply last year, and Butlins in June, again cheap but the kids really enjoy. Went to America last year and thank god we did that whilst the rates were so good, wont be going there for a while it looks!!

Can't really vote in this, we go away with my parents or the in laws so it doesn't really apply!!

We're actually having sunnier weather here at the moment than we did all summer!
As for holidays, we're off to Tuscany in May!

We'll be going to Florida (Gulf Coast, Anna Maria Island) this summer (again) and maybe Egypt in the autumn - OH dives and the Red Sea is quite passable.

And if I can get a cheap deal I might take the grandson away - though Europe is looking quite poor - with the exchange rate. We'll just have to see how things pan out on that front.

Business as usual for us we don't go away in the Summer though it's normally February for somewhere Sunny.

We're off to the Maldives in 6 weeks and have just booked our 2010 Feb holiday today.

It will be short breaks in the summer but where depends on the Euro

After last year where all I got was rain, rain and some more rain (even in Barcelona in May, 5 out of 7 days solid rain the worst they had in 11 years - and it all fell while I was there!), this year I am going to treat myself to some sunshine. Probably traveling by train to somewhere in Italy out of season and spending as little as possible, but this is always the case wherever I go.

Or back to the hostel near Barcelona, a few minutes walk from the beach, hoping for good weather, after all lightning never strikes twice in the same place, or does it?

Being self employed I am going to wait and see. Don`t fancy one euro to the pound!!!! Will be stepping onto Spanish soil at one point tho if only to get my yearly tobacco.

My options remain open so I can't vote.

We are madly overpaying mortgage using offset account andlow tracker rates.

If incomes stay the same and a late opportunity arises to cruise in the summer again cheaply, as it did last year, we will go using some (not all) of the mortgage offset.

However, if anything changes, the mortgage is the most important to minimise and we will go away instead in our camper.
