Yes Its holiday time again, I can already hear in the distance the shouting couples over where they want to go as the prices have hit a very high peek..obviously because the kids will be on the their summer school break too, and the holiday companies want to screw you for every penny you got so you can get 1 or 2 weeks of sunshine, something we seem to lack in the UK.
Once your finally at the airport after a getting stuck in traffic on the motorway for 3 hours and your 4 year old has thrown up over her new clothes, you arrive stressed, late and hungry but with the common delays of Easyjet your ok for time, but the rip-off prices at the eateries make you wish you brought sandwiches! Then you have the sudden worry of whether or not you remembered to lock the back door. Moaning kids bored and tired making you see a red mist apear from within. Finally, your led through the cattle-like queueing system at security to the lounge after your tin of Vaseline and 2 mouthfuls of drink has been confiscated. which, by the way can be bought again as its cheaper than buying a clear bag for 2 pounds.
So, depending on your destination, dont moan that the weather is too hot, and be aware of the dodgy drinking water, all inclusive food, dirty pools, pick-pockets, dead bugs in your bed, used plasters in the plug hole and the shouting and vibrations from other people in the room above with a squeaky bed!
Well, after all that, maybe a small holiday spent in the UK could be less stressful – if you can put up with the ‘rip-off britian’ prices here and the crappy weather with the non existant sunshine.
