I've been Money Tipped!
My next big holiday is in December according to countdown app, I have 242 days-23 hours- 2min to go:eek::eek::mad:

The only exciting thing I have coming up is a bank holiday weekend trip to Cornwall to learn how to surf!:T:cool: That's 130 days-15 hours - 2 min away!

2016 looks promising though as I have spaced them out nicely throughout the year.
  1. Cruise March - 339 Days-0 Hours-0Min
  2. USA 35 day Trip August - 465 Days - 3 Hours - 0 Min

Everyone else seems to be forever on holiday!?!?!:(

Where are you off to next, have you DIY (which is the fun part)?

    Not long to go Peaceful. How much driving is involved in the July road trip?

    Your August Bank holiday, sounds like fun.....NOT!:eek:

    Trixie I'll be in the middle of the bush in SA (on safari for 3 nights over NY) first time I'll be away over Christmas and NY in forever! If it's any comfort I feel your pain

    Lots booked but nothing as exotic as those mentioned.

    Lots of short trips mainly uk based.

    Little and often is my motto this year while we kill the last of the debt

    Little and Often sound like a great motto......I need to take a leaf out of your book!

    Where in the UK are you going?

    Off to Greece in about 3 weeks time - hope it's still there...

    Only booked flights to Athens so far - then bus to Piraeus for a ferry, probably Paros or Naxos to start with. Have done this quite a few times - big difference this year is late flight landing early morning instead of very early start from this end.

    We keep talking about a round the world trip, but something seems to stop us, have told aged mother not to die!! and told daughters not to think weddings. I have always wanted to see Tokyo and the wife wants to see New Zealand.

    ps did buy some better suitcases only today........its a start!

    Do you mind telling me how much you got them for? I'm keeping an eye on the BA site for flights from DUB to MIA, currently 1st Class is cheaper than Business Class, not sure why???

    Man are you planning on arriving and just going with the flow? Sounds like fun!

    Wall I see folk on Flyertalk GOING on RTW trips, which sounds like a great plan. When you say RTW, which destinations do you plan on going to? Japan and OZ/NZ are on my bucket list for 2017.

    I day dream of doing a RTW trip hitting all 7 continents!

    I also dream of a day where I no longer have to take holidays during school holidays, 4 more years and I can officially join the "Term Time Holidays Allowed Club" I can't bloody wait!:beer::beer:

    Married a teacher, she retired this Easter, so I have waited 34 years.
    Hence the world trip , that or the Lamborghini ( I lost the vote)

    We do have relatives in OZ , and good friends in San Francisco, but it still in the talk stage. Will put up with a couple of weeks in Cyprus and maybe a week in Turkey, this year.
    Last year managed time in the canaries and Crete , but spent more, traveling around Northumberland.
