    Just a word of warning.........My parents went on a cruise when I was 17, and when they got back the house was spotless.Thats because we had a party, and our friends mum had to come and wash the carpets with her carpet cleaner to stop us being killed by dad:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:


    Thats what is bothering me. :rotfl:

    It could be worse, my mother went away to Hawaii for 2 weeks and left us kids in the house. We spent all of the housekeeping money on day one and had no food. So, we put an ad in the local paper for a rave in mums garage/ workshop, £3 to get in :) we had almost 300 people turn up :rotfl: The neighbours weren't happy and called the police who closed us down, mum moved not long after that :rotfl:

    Funnily enough, my best money-saving event was a cruise a couple of years back.
    The Daily Express were offering guaranteed cruise for £10 if 60 vouchers were collected from the paper. I collected the vouchers -this was the worst bit in case anyone saw me with the Daily Express - and sure enough I got the cruise for £10. It included return flights to Gerona, a cabin all to myself and luxury food. The cruise ship stopped somewhere different every day Tunis, Naples, Malta, Majorca etc.

    I had a rattlin' good time, and even considering the expensive drinks, my bar bill was less than £100 for the week.

    It can be done!

    Yes, I went on one of these - eventually. Took ages, but when the offer finally arrived, I had the choice of 12 different itineraries and dates. I too had a great time. Single outside cabin. Flight to Palma, then Sardinia, Italy and France. My bar bill was, well, higher - can't say in case my wife reads this!!

    Wonder if they'll do it again. I don't mind, my friend gives me the vouchers from his Express !!
