Holidays

Well lads, I can't help but prepare for the summer when you see the weather that we have had recently(some of it anyway).

Where is everyone heading? Hot or cold? Friends or family? How long?

I am going to Portugal for 4 days at the end of May with the lads who I go away with, I am then going to Corfu on July 1st with the girlfriend for 10 days. It now looks quite likely that I will be going to the US of A for an NUFC pre-season game. It sounds mad, but they don't come round often. I will be hoping to go visit family down south for a few days as well. I have finished Uni now until the end of September(what a joke) so I have a lot of time on my hands, hopefully get a lot of shifts at work.

What about you?

 

Bulgaria for 7days in June with my girlfriend and her family,
Magaluf in July for 10days with the lads.
Wont be able to get time of work to go to America unfortunately

 

Portugal beginning of April, just me and Mrs Sombrero (Albufiera) then Portugal again in August (Burgau) with the kids. Cant wait!

 

Does she approve of Magaluf?

 

Not much really. Apart from being a lazy ****,.. might go visit the family in Venezuela or my cousins in Mexico, probably 2 to 3 weeks if possible. I'm also planning on working out a LOT to beef ''mi'' self up, hang out with my mates(might go to Newcastle in mid-July for a couple of days) and do the usual.. go shopping, play video games, surf the 'net, watch TV, read, write/draw and hopefully play more football(outside with mates), 5 a side y'know?

 

I haven't been on holiday since i was 16 when my family went to Finland and since i'm still a student (game designer course) and i also have a part time job which is paying for my course and whatever is left over i'm saving for a car, apartment etc... so no holiday fro me this year (and probably the next )

But i would love to go to Canada for a month.

 

Yeah shes spot on about it, i went last year.
It's no were near all the coverage and hype it recieves.

 

Doing nowt, man am boring, probably go down to London for a few days, espeically if we are away in London in the early weeks of the season.

 

off to portgual too, then Reading festival at the end of august

 

Either Tanzania or Uganda for 6 weeks, not really a holiday but it's going away somewhere I suppose...

 

unsure to be honest. was considering a holiday with the girlfriend, a long week together seeing as we hardly see each other. money situation will probably be difficult though.
with this in mind, does anyone have any suggestions/advice on a decent/cheap enough holiday for a young couple (19) looking for somewhere thats preferably warm, with a decent nightlife (ie some nice pubs, not too british, nothing clubby like) and still plenty to do in the day time such as visits to places etc. we've been looking into it loads but sort of halted of late due to money situations, would be my first holiday away without the parents too ha.

 

best advice would be to go to a travel agents explain the situation to them and just look through the offers they have mate
either that or scroll through the net

 

I really do admire the work you do for charity

 

Yeah have had a bit of a gander on the internet. Travel agents would be a good one.
Just wondering if people have any advice from personal experience too i suppose, what with most, if not all, travel agents sites obviously saying nothing about the price from holidaymakers personal experience.

 

I'm not going anywhere. Moving for university in July, have to pay a good amount in deposits and rent for that which will drain my very slowly accumulated dole until student finance kicks in a few months later, unless I have more luck getting a job any time soon.

 

the outskirts of Barcelona are generally cheapish Salou I think its called easy access to Barca.
Majorca is also good for what your looking for as it isn't roudy and is very relaxing with links to anywhere you would want to go really.

I haven't been abroad that many times so dont really know anywhere else hoped it helped a little

 

Hot, family, 10 days.

Eurasia.

 

Was in Disneyland Paris last week which was awesome, just got a holiday in Cornwall through the summer holidays now. Spending the rest of the time saving up for a new car and a deposit/mortgage on a house which aint gonna be easy on my wage!!!

 

Not fancy a caravan holiday? Some nice vans in the Bamburgh area and nice views and pubs to go to with it. I think one of the guys on here has been before and spoke well of it.

 

If anyone is thinking of getting away with the missus for a long weekend and want something not too pricey but with great resturants and bars
YORK is amazing
