I have a mobile home that I have been renting out all summer and it's now empty if anyone wants to come over and stay in it FREE? It's 2mins walk from beach and small shop and 1 mile from small resort with amusements, pubs, shops, fairground etc.......

Could I book a week in the new year?? We have had such a horrible year and I really want to go to Ireland, and could do with the break/.

sparklymieow · 27/08/2005 21:54

whoops me too.......

jayzmummy · 27/08/2005 21:54

Ummmmm....DH is 40 on the 7th Sept. We were going to Africa but he injured himself quite badly and had loads of time off work....so funds are short and Africa is now out of the queston.

I was thinking about Paris.....but DH isnt keen and think we should just forget about his 40th...but I can't do that can I!!!

Ireland is somewhere I have always wanted to go and DH is a fan of the black stuff ( so am I!!!)

Whats the surf like???
Where is the caravan??
Ferry or plane??

Absolutely NO CATCH. I lived in it 2 yrs ago, and it is great. Basic, clean, safe, fun, homely, and I rented it out alot during the summer. Today is the first day it is empty and I hate seeing it going to waste. I live round the corner, and when I went in today I got to thinking it was such a pity that it wast't going to get any more use.

We were looking at Ireland too - but DH wants us to go without the kids so we'll probably stay in the city - if we ever get a babysitter!
The flights were so cheap though - £94 in total for 4 of us return from blackpool - Dublin with Ryannair lunchtime flights nice little airport so no probs with parking and it only takes 45 mins!
