cool, you deserve a break

that's something to look forward to.

It will be Fred's first time away from home since April 2008, poor lamb.

In the time since then I've visited you lot in Europe twice!

I didn't realise it was that long. I thought you went to LV during this time.

no - last time was April 08.

we're hoping to book a boat on the Shannon during the half term break Joules hasn't had a holiday since June 2008.

that would be lovely beccy.

I thought you guys went away for the weekend

what weekend? Can't think of any

oh some hotel down south and the kids stayed at grandmas?

maybe that was ages ago

time flies whe you are getting middle aged

I mean granny's not grandmas

I went to a hotel down south about 20 months months ago kids stayed with Joules

We went to Ikea and stayed in a hotel which we got through a special offer but that was no fun break...five+ hours in Ikea

followed by lots of driving. Didn't even have time to use the hotels leisure facilities.
