Holidays are on hold until my sales and marketing work pays off with some hefty new contracts over the coming months. I'm quite happy with it because I spent the best part of a year visiting a ton of different places including LA, NYC, Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, Brixton and a few European hops between September 2018 - January 2020, so had banked some serious travel time before the panny D kicked off.

A week in Centre Parks in May. I'm so excited about it. Not because it's a week away, but because we're going with our closest friends and sharing a 'house' there. It's going to be amazing sharing that week together and for our boys to play together too.

Also finally Brazil in summer, maybe late summer. First chance for me and my son to meet my in-laws in person.

We've booked 10 days in Menorca in June. Max's first every trip on an aeroplane and he's very excited about it.

Couple of UK-based long weekends as well with friends.

The wife would like to book a holiday in Greece so I'll go with the flow.

Before that I have a weekend in Magaluf with about 40 customers. It will be very, very messy 😂😂

We've got our 2 year delayed holiday in Duinrell in April. Still unsure they'll let us in by then TBH, so it might get pushed again. Then we have Calpe in Spain in September for my Brothers wedding, but I've yet to book anything yet as I'm sick of being dissapointed!
Cheers.

We started looking but Jesus wept the flights this year seem really expensive. Looked at Spain for summer half term amd whilst our preferred hotel was cheap the flights were double the hotel costs at nearly 1k :shock: it's only Man to Malaga ffs so nothing obscure.

This one is top end, no expense spared but it is a 2 berth convert van and not a Winnebago, fixed bedding type deal

These are the ones where no-one uses the inside to cook as it makes the bedding smell, so it’s basically an expensive seat while everyone sets up camp 😂

We have a week in Wales in August and that’s all that’s planned, the wife is away for a few days at a time share a friend of ours had bought and other than that just lots of weekends away when we see something we fancy.

Dave!

Not sure that's true Dave - at least he hasn't had that issue. I suppose it depends in what you're cooking though. Besides, the bedding is stored away anyway until it's needed.
