We haven't booked our summer holiday yet. Is all hope lost?

Who likes searching for holidays on the internet?

Isn't it the worst chore that ever existed?

I'm right amn't I?

Haven’t booked ours too. Don’t really know where to start - there’s too much choice!

Not booked ours either. At the stage where I think I've seen every house in France and then discover a really obscure website.

I hate it but never learn. Because I hate it.

Me neither almost there hopefully

DH wants to leave it really late and then book!! Go into a travel agent and ask what they have. I feel like we’ve missed all the deals and nice places so think his approach might be the best.

We haven’t either. I know we’ve probably missed out on a lot so need to pull my finger out.

I never book a holiday until a few weeks before we want to go. The last time we went we booked with three weeks notice and had to travel to the passport place to get £££ one day passports for two of us Hmm
I absolutely hate looking for holidays.

We were in same boat but literally this morning booked a holiday to Crete on Wowcher. Unbelievable price and great reviews. Fingers crossed it's as good as it looks! I think maybe people have held off booking because of Brexit? Regardless, there are some great bargains to be had, even in peak August months if you shop around.

Me! I absolutely love it! I guess it's a bit different as it's just the two of us going. Took forever to research and plan our next big holiday. We always have dates, preferred accommodation and flights decided before we get it priced by an agent. I also do all my friend's holiday bookings too.

Booked mine today - two weeks in a couple of villas travelling around Italy. Flights were under £60 to Naples return!

Flower777 · 04/06/2019 21:47

I booked mine at the weekend smug

elessar · 04/06/2019 21:52

It's not too late. Loads of deals around because people have held off booking because of Brexit - so you'll definitely get something for a good price!

Surely the worse job ever is putting a new duvet cover on?!
