    £800 for me :D

    Last time I went I stayed with a friend and spent only £500 - but if a cruise is your thing go for it - I'm not a relax on holiday kind of gal - I like to do 'stuff', hence all the city breaks :D

    A cruise is great for that, although a day off in between cities is good......

    Sammy, Croyde is one of my all time favourite places EVER. I could happily live there.

    I think it depends what you do...tbh I would be happy with a beach, a book and a cocktail...I don't need anything fancy although a bit of sun would be great...but my OH likes eating out and sightseeing and driving for miles and miles and miles...

    I am going away for a week in Croyde with my sister in July. She is disabled so can't go far which is fine by me, I shall just run around the caravan park, stop to read a book every now and then. make the dinner and drink red wine at night whilst putting the world to rights......cost of holiday = not much!

    Sounds perfect to me - can I come? Croyde is good - given the weather.

    £800 for 1 week for 1 to new york, but £900 for 2 weeks full board on a med cruise.

    duno, but to me, the med cruise sounds like the option to go for.

    its just convincing the OH... i think she's a workaholic or something.

    camping is out the window, and would like somewhere reasonably nice.

    aaaah!

    Where is Croyde :confused:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
