Down to the bog for a week and you'll have a great tan, you can lie to your friends and tell them you were in tenerife.

Steyr

Spain for 2 weeks in August, the last two weeks when it's hottest!:D

cherryghost

Vain

Yep im going on hols.

TPD

Eindhoven for a few days in July-ish.

Ginny

Podge2k7

its the spending money that puts a spanner in the works for me

regob

yeah im having a holiday this year, probably cant afford it though

ScumLord

I could holiday just about anywhere in Europe for less than €300. It might only be one night but it's a holiday none the less.

RATM

Peru, Bolivia & Argentina for 3 months. Whoo-hoo

Ruu_Old

Florida in May, haven't planned anything else after that. Probably will.

Jet Black

Yep Spain for two weeks in june-july. Cost me €300 (the price of a good hooker over there for an hour)

xOxSinéadxOx

could never afford them anyway

dr.bollocko

Had a holiday there at the start of the month. Will be paying for it for the next three months however. Then another holiday. Im addicted to travel.

I will be visiting rosslare many many times I would imagine this year, I have a mobile home down there which I own but haven't paid the fees yet and that's going to kill me. I wanted to bring my hubbie to Vegas for his 30th but can't see that happening now

Dave147

Off to Slovakia for a week in June to meet the girlfriends mother and to break up her 3 week stay. Then 2 of us going to Crete for 10 days in August not letting recession ruin my summer!

Nightwish

I've already been to London and Florida. Trips to France, Finland and the Netherlands are in the pipeline too. I need to get out of this country as often as possible to keep myself sane.

jester77

Oh yeah, need the hols to refresh the soul!! Was in Oz last month for a few weeks, back in Ireland for a week in June, either Japan or S. Korea in the Autumn and some weekend breaks here and there!

Thundercats Ho

Been over to Edinburgh and Glasgow for a weekend.
Going to Amsterdam for a weekend next month, followed two weeks later by a 2 week holiday in Spain and France.
I'd feel guilty if i was sayin this to someone on the dole, but then i'd remember i was off to amsterdam for the weekend.....
Ah feck it. i'll most likely be out of a job at the end of summer, so might as well enjoy it while i can.

Highsider

Week in Disneyland in March and off to Europe on the motorbikes with the lads for 2 weeks in July. It's all good

ottostreet

Haven't been on a holiday since 2004! Heading to the British Grand Prix for the weekend in June though.

AlmightyCushion

I've two stags coming up over the next month (liverpool and munich), I have to head to wales at some stage over the summer to visit one of my friends and promised another friend I'd head to over to America for a week to see him. So should have a busy summer if I can find some cheap flights to America (no way I'm going if they are expensive).
