Sun_Addict said:I’ve booked Zante for next Saturday 🎉🥂 Got Mr SA sorted with a scooter 👍 Plus it was £500 cheaper than Ibiza 👍 Will be there just in time for my birthday 🥂 So all I need now is for Greece to remain low Covid wise for another week 🙏
So pleased for you 🧉🍹 xx

Will be interesting to see if it’s changed since we last went. It was 22 years ago 😱I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)6

Great news about Zante!
SA - forgive me if I’m overstepping the mark , but can you not get any respite support so that you get a break? My BIL was wheelchair bound and housebound with his condition and relied on my MIL and FIL for day to day support, although he tried to be as independent as he could, but they were able to get a couple of weekends a year ( which I know isn’t much ) so they got a break and my BIL went to stay in a respite care centre. This was 20 years ago though, so I realise that things might have changed but it is important for you to have time to rest and recover from the demands of caring.paydbx2025 #26 £890/£5000 . Mortgage start £148k June 23 - now £138k.

SA
Fab! So pleased for you. Agree with all posters above - and as I think I said earlier- you must have me-time. If you don't, you'll implode and what will Mr SA do then? This is deffo a situation for a few white lies. Love Humdinger x6 -
Great news about Greece. Enjoy 🍹🍹☀️☀️☀️☀️January spends - £587.586

Really pleased to hear this SA i love Zante, are you going to Kalamaki ? You really need this break.Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.6

Yes going to Kalamaki @Sunshine_girl2 😁They still do the respite breaks but there is no way Mr SA would stay in a respite centre.Before I booked I checked the Covid league table and Greece are at number 99 whereas UK is 14 and Spain 12. Turkey were a lot higher up the list which swung it for me Greece wise.I’ve given myself a headache overthinking all this, get me on that plane ☀️I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)7

On Fake Britain right now talking about fake alcohol in Zante but this is in Laganas where the young ones go. We walked there from Kalamaki and it was a bit mad.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)6
