Last year Dh and I went away at a certain time of year with the kids and had a brilliant time. We are going to do the same this year. It was just a lovely little family break and we are looking forwards to the same again.
Now some of my friends have mentioned about going (this was before we said we were definitely doing it again this year) this year and have been looking up prices. I (bloody stupidly) mentioned I get a small discount and they immediately said it was brilliant and I could arrange it all for them.
NO NO NO!! After a recent event, I swore to DH that I refuse to organise any thing again. It always brings me hassle in some way, I always have to chase people up, and some of the people that are going are notoriously flakey and don't often reply to messages.

Now I tried to get a quote online and it actualy won't let me for the size of the group and says to phone. I know they are going to want me to do it and us all to book it together so we get a group discount, which we would. But I actually don't want to go with them. We enjoyed ourselves a lot last time and were looking forward to a little family break again, not trying to coordinate with 3 or more other families were peoepl would want to do different things plus one in particular likes to get her own way and if you don't agree to what she wants, she'll keep mentioning it.
AIB a miserable bugger? If not then how do I diplomatically say "hell no, we want our own family break?" It is highly likely they ware going anyway and we are all going to be there at the same time. DH is really not keen on the idea either.
