    I have just had a look on the booking site, notice they have cut alot of dates out, as the only holiday we would have liked to have booked was on mon 20 aug but notice that is not an available date now, but did notice that they have added in oct half term, and ironically i can get one of the parks i wanted for the summer in oct half term(Haven thorp park, or Haven golden sands), but it is still showing as a £15 holiday, well i dont want to be paying £15pp for an oct half term holiday when in previous years they have been £9.50, why have they done this, or will they be doing another lot of £9.50 holidays later in the year?, i am quite tempted as wont get holiday this year otherwise, but dont really want to be paying £15 when i could pay £9.50 if you see what i mean

    yeah some people on the FB group said this was the case !

    you will be able to book Oct half term in the July promo,depends if you don't mind not getting your first choices I guess ?

    well normally the oct half term hol is just a little treat, breakaway, dont really do much just relax, so tend to only look for something near to us in the southwest, it is the summer holiday that we like to go a bit further a field on and do some exxploring, and as been just come across a long lost relative wanted to get somewhere in lincolnshire, as i have loads of family up that way anyway, but cant get anything up north at all in the summer, and they have even taken off the date we could go away:(, will just have to hope they release another load for the summer in a seperate promotion mid - end of june,, as they have in past couple of years, or hope i get an email from haven like i did last year, could have got a whole week in blackpool cheaper than i got 4 days at pontins pakefield thru the sun last year, hopefully they will do similar this year
    Take every day as it comes!!

    Yay :j Had an email from The Sun today telling me more dates had been added and extras for August too. So have managed to get 1 of my original choice weeks in August but not the Park I orginally wanted but chose 1 that is only a few miles away from it instead.

    Roll on summer holidays :j

    I've booked a £15 Sun holiday for August. Can anyone tell me when the next £9.50 autumn holiday promo starts (July?) if i'll get a priority code again? and if I dont use it if theyll send me another one for the £15 holidays? or will they think that Im not interested and then stop sending me them? if you know what I mean?
