Off to Thailand later this month for 11 nights, not been before and looking forward to it! We were due to go to the Maldives at the end of April for 10 nights but have postponed as we are now moving mid Feb and need to get that out of the way, may possibly switch to doing a Sri Lanka/Maldives twin centre or just Mexico in May or maybe June.
Then Egypt in Sept for 10 nights, we did Egypt twice last year and were impressed with the value for money both times, especially for someone as obsessed with coral reefs as I am.
A few years ago I was struggling to make ends meet on a DMP so now I am debt free I live to travel
Very happily married on 10th April 2013

I've booked a festival ticket for during summer. So has OH, but this year we are going to different festivals to each other.
I think we've decided on a few days/long weekend in Barcelona in March/April-ish time, as we both want to go there. Since I renewed my passport about three years ago I'm determined to actually get to use it!
I want to look for when would be the best value time to go, anyone know how I can find which dates would be cheapest? Or is it really going to be a case of spending hours changing the dates and re-searching in websites, then hoping the deal stays there long enough to get the time off work approved?0
