Going anywhere nice? We spent a long weekend in Pembrokeshire (a few pics below). Back to Montenegro in September. A weekend in York in August.

A week in June so far, same where we always go. The east of our country, about as far away from people as possible.
It was noticeable more expensive though - as in: a lot.

Still scheming and planning about which Greek island to visit in August - one that would be new for me (Corfu, Skiathos, Mykonos) or somewhere we already adore (Pefkos in Rhodes, Kos, Santorini)? We shall see.

I certainly also want to revisit Athens for a city break around the end of October - two nights last year wasn't enough and there's a strong sense of us having unfinished business in that place.

Had a couple of nights in Birmingham  :P
Got a midweek break in York in April
Got a weekend break in Newcastle-upon-Tyne in June

Not done more than a couple of night's away since about 2012  :(

And I agree with Fishy, Corfu's a nice place, certainly was nice place, not been since 1992...

A fortnight ago we had a week in Hinterglemm in the Austrian Alps. First snowboard trip for four years. Lovely hotel, absolutely delightful food. Snow not all that but a fantastic holiday nevertheless.
No plans for summer yet. I may save my leave as I'm retiring at the end of August so I could go a week or two earlier if I don't use it.
We've already had a couple of weekends away in the motorhome. We are off to Bakewell tomorrow for the Easter weekend. Cycling and beer on the agenda.

From September onwards, everyday will be a holiday!

Was supposed to be in Corfu this week but holiday firm went bust, now residing on Kos for a week instead. Nice to feel the heat and see blue skies again.
