To say that a staycation is NOT a holiday in the UK??

[BrieAndChilli]

A staycation is where you sleep in your OWN home but take time off work and go on lots of day trips etc

Going elsewhere in the uk and staying in a cottage/caravan/hotel is an ACTUAL HOLIDAY!!!!!!

...That’s all, as you were.

*[Message from MNHQ: Hey OP, we've edited the title of your thread, as requested. Though we'd have to say that the original 'starvation' was more amusing...]

slightly misleading title there, OP.

Starvation is definitely not a holiday anywhere I'd have to say

Starvation is definitely not a holiday.

It’s no fun at all 😉

Starving yourself is the worst hoilday

someone is being wrong on the internet or indeed real life. you are not being unreasonable. Now i shall start running and say ....
But starvation isn't a holiday for anyone

I think a stayification is only own home? Not a caravan holiday?

Eating is normally suggested...

Is that all inclusive starvation?

I'm with you OP... Chris Evans is really bad for this

Is that you Scarlett Moffat?

Wasn't that a song by the dead Kennedys?

So eating is optional?

It would be the only holiday I've ever returned from lighter than when I left home...

Well I’ve heard it’s no picnic.

I'm with you OP. A staycation is when you "stay" at home, in your own house, or possibly at the home of a relative. The clue is in the name.

A holiday is when you go away from home even if it's in the next county.

I thought this might be about a weight loss health farm?

Ignoring the title.
So a staycation is just living in your house and not going to work? I would consider a staycation going away somewhere local.

What does she actually mean?

Like a retreat?

Eh! I read starvation in the title and it doesn’t say that now!

No starvation is definitely not a holiday but I quite like to stay at home and do things while off work. It nice being in your own bed.

Growing up we called it a holiday to Ourgate.

Miranda Hart once went and stayed at a chintzy motel in her home town.....just to enjoy the complimentary shortbreads and youthful room service .....so what would that be? Staycation or micro-haul holiday? 🤔

Starvation is a holiday though. You're getting away from food.

I hate that word staycation, not starvation
You are just staying home, why the need for another fancier word for it?

Not what I thought this would be when I clicked on "starvation".

But yes, totally, utterly and completely. Known as a "holiday at home" in our house, and means literally staying in our house.

It's been edited, but I'm still really laughing at the original title.
Um yes, no, who knows
