Glad things are improving.
I would suggest also that you aim to agre regualr contact wit hyour ex, which could include agreeing on how much time in the holidays he / his paretns will have - that wouldn't stop you agreeing extra times on an ad hoc basis, but a baeline is a sensible idea. You can also think about what kind of notice you ned for dates (taking into account your own plans and when you will ned to book things like holidya cluns, if relwvnt, and then agreethis with your ex. (e.g. agree that he has 1x2 + 1 x1 weks in the summer holidays, on the basis that he needs to let you know which weeks he wants no later than(say) the start of the Easter holidays, failing which you will let him know which weeks are available..

Ok good idea, I'm going to plot my 2020 holiday out actually and book that time off with my ex. His holiday year ends half way, mine is a calendar year. I'd really like to save 5 days for myself as well but thats a luxury I might not have!
