    Probably a fly drive holiday in northern Spain and Portugal visiting the OH's family. We tend to go on our hols early September as the schools are back so it's usually cheaper, not so busy and a bit cooler.

        Anyway, we already had our 'summer' holiday at Easter - 10 days in sunny (no really) Lapland. Gorgeous.

            More importantly, will CUK be able to manage without Sas for 4 weeks???

              To our house in Poitou-Charentes. Can't wait. 4 weeks this year, with a few days each end 'working from home'.

                You must be one of those people who delights in visiting weird offbeat places. I worked with someone like that - Even when holidaying in Spain, it was inevitably two weeks in the baking hot dusty flat area in the middle, where nobody not even the Spanish wants to live (*) if they can avoid it

                (*) although I think Madrid may be inland somewhere

                  Back at Abbey Road in September so maybe a CUK London meet around then?

                    I'm glad sassy chooses such places. Means no chance of meeting him when I'm at classy 5* establishments.

                      So anywhere not in a traditional touristy part of Spain is offbeat and weird? Maybe you want to widen your horizons a bit?
