Yeah well we're going to Fife where we lived for eight years so it's more like going home than going on holiday.

if work approve my hols then Bethlehem in Palestinian territories to stay with DH's family. not looking forward to it to be honest. been there lots, lovely place, love his family but there is usually some sort of crap to deal with re SIL and BIL. Kids love it though.

MadamGazelleIsMyMum · 09/05/2013 13:04

DS's first hol was Butlins in Minehead. How did this glamourous destination not make the thread title? Grin

ChasingDaisy · 09/05/2013 13:54

No hols for us this year Sad I will live vicariously through you all Smile

KatieLily12 · 09/05/2013 14:05

To be fair we're going for free. Last detonation was Dorset. Also free

fruitpastilles · 09/05/2013 16:58

No holiday for us either Sad poor dp didn't have one last year either, he's desperate for one, I'm hoping he will surprise us with a break in September wishful thinking

Kyzordz · 09/05/2013 18:02

Marking place, no hols here either :(

ValiumQueen · 09/05/2013 18:33

I will also be going to Lancashire. Clearly this is where all the posh classy people go. Bolton Le Sands to be exact. In a frigging tent although it has been agreed I can stay with MIL with boy due to sleep and feeding issues.

BigPigLittlePig · 09/05/2013 19:02

Get in, vq
Can no longer be arsed with erecting tents etc. And smelling of mildew for the duration. Sorry to any happy campers out there.

KatieLily12 · 09/05/2013 20:18

Ooooo I said detonation

I left Dorset standing

PetiteRaleuse · 09/05/2013 20:23

Lived in Lancashire for 18 years so am going home, I suppose. Yeah vq we are well posh us.

KatieLily12 · 09/05/2013 20:26

Is it wrong that I read brockie's post as the kids live the drama? I picture them watching tennis match style as people bicker.

I might need more sleep

Brockle · 09/05/2013 20:39

my ds1 is probably now old enough to sit there and enjoy it katie Grin Grin I am not. Grin

KatieLily12 · 09/05/2013 20:46

Would the arguing be improved by his contribution?

I was having a proper 'I'm fed up with you being a lazy git' style rant at OH the other day and felt terrible that I was telling in front of LO. Ha! She was laughing her head off! I couldn't keep a straight face as she burst out laughing everytime I yelled!

Brockle · 09/05/2013 20:55

BigPigLittlePig · 09/05/2013 21:21

Doesn't feel much like a holiday at the moment here evil - maybe I'm not quite south or west enough.

Evilwater · 09/05/2013 21:22

No not tonight, you've got gales too big?

BigPigLittlePig · 09/05/2013 21:25

Yes. Plus I believe that when one is on ones holidays, one should feel well rested?
