[QUOTE=MrToast;935213]Nah! He couldn't afford the rate.Originally posted by bogeyman View PostQuite right SA. It annoys the teats off me.
I think it's a marketing meme invented by the various British tourist boards to make us think we'll save money.
So what happens. All the worthy plebs decide to 'staycation' and the UK hotels jack up the prices!
Will be going to Portugal for a week, shortly, and having a great time, on a modest budget, and laughing at the cocks who's gone to 'Sunny' Devon, or somewhere, getting ripped off in a crap hotel, with crap service and inedible food.
Staycation my arse![/quote]
Sounds like an invite for HAB.
HAB!

WHS. If I do go "On Holiday" for a week I take the week after off as well to recover.Originally posted by NotAllThere View PostI've often taken a week or two off work and stayed at home. I never understood the compulsion to climb aboard a jet on the Friday evening, and return home the Sunday before going back to work. Far too stressful. I need a week either side of any travel just to recover properly.
