    Any suggestions?
    Thailand, off season not too hot, good food.

    Cuba, Gambia, anywhere in the Caribbean.

    Am thinking of either southern Italy, Portugal or Madeira meself, not a big fan of major heat.

    Getting cold is but a short step from getting wet though.

    A week off from jet-setting might make a nice change for them. I've booked a return flight to the Med for £34, which wouldn't go far in the UK.

    When you work your nuts off for 4 weeks holiday a year and have it spoiled by rain it is no laughing matter.
    Get off to Benidorm and enjoy some decent weather.

    Utter waste of money centreparcs.


    You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to DimPrawn again.

    Yes, somewhere abroad.

    It's much cheaper than staying in a hotel or B&B in the UK, and with far cheaper fags & booze too.

    There's a similar campaign here in Eurodisney, nobody wants the brits to visit.
