£2000 a week including flights? Well, you have been married for 10 whole long years, and you have 10 months to save up....and it is greece, therefore a fabulous choice

LadyDragonOfSoup · 06/10/2005 13:26

Oy! COd! I went and measured my Gap jeans for you.

oliveoil · 06/10/2005 13:26

We enjoyed Daphnes on zakynthos in May - recommended by a mumsnetter - and will be much cheaper. I know I'm always attracted to those Simply Travel places but they are quite pricey. Google daphnes zakynthos. We ate out all the time but I'm afraid I can't remember how much it was - remember thinking it wasn't dirt cheap but not too bad. Probably similar price to a bog standard italian restaurant here.

It will be hot hot hot in august though!
Have to say if I wanted something a bit like keycamp but more comfortable I would probably investigate something like a Pierre et Vacances set up. Don't know how the price would compare though.

TheRtHonBaronessEnidOBE · 06/10/2005 13:59
