We're back at home!!! Went to Heathrow this morning - - never seen anything like it!! We weren't even alowed into the terminal!! In the end, my wife contacted Lufthansa in Moscow (!! they weren't answering calls in UK!!) and got us booked onto a BA flight tomorrow afternoon! Not sure if...

Somewhere warm and suitable for a 3 yr old? We are thinking of Dubai or Egypt at the moment. We have been to Dubai for last 2 Years and had a great time but evenings are usually just a big dinner at about 8oclock and a few drinks which is fine when the little one is asleep in his buggy but i...

As per title: Seems like Zakynthos is closing down in October (unless you know different?) planning a holiday for 21st ish to 31st ish abroad. Spain: NO Canaries: NO Egypt: NO Port Ugal: NO Greek Island: Possibly Cyprus: Possibly Malta: Possibly Any top tips for best locations, best...

After overwhelming requests (well: *** at any rate) here is the write-up of the recent Spain/ Portugal road-run. (with apologies to those who also use the Owners-Club forum and have read it already). Prologue... Leaving home on 7th aug and an overnight in the PremierLodge at Bromsgrove we...

Hi All, The Girlfriend and I are trying to plan a trip for 7-9 days. We've decided on the Middle East and within that either Jordan, Syria or Oman. We'll be going in October. We had a reasonably chilled out holiday this summer, so we don't mind if this holiday is a bit more "jam packed"...

Hello boys , girls. have a great bank holiday. We are away at the mo, soaking up the burning Arabic sun... Barry, this could be as intensive as the fire heat you must have endured.. Have a good weekend peeps, i prob won't be online much (ah bliss i head you cry), but please try not to miss...

Hello As some may know we recemtly swapped the wifes A Class (A210 EVO) for a B Class. We did this just before we were due to go on holiday and I thought a good test of her car was to use it on Holiday. I little last minuite as I had to swap the green card insurance from my car to hers and...

No GTG?:dk:

Hi, I'd like to send my parents on holiday, just becuase i think they deserve it. My budget is £300, and for that I'd like flight and hotel for a few days. The key factor is relaxation, however they're only in their mid-60's so it need not be too quiet. I sent them to Loch Lomond a...

Last week had 2 nights away driving around the east and west coast using Carlise as central accommodation area. The weather was good apart from a few showers. The travellodge was poor this time, last time was about 10 yrs ago, this time the bed was bad and the pillows were paper thin :doh...

Thinking of a few days away in mid to end of September, probably a Sunday to Thurs/Fri.. needs to be somewhere mildly warm, not boiling, but comfortable to do outdoors relaxing, sight seeing type stuff... Dont want a long flight, so europe ish... And definately none of the cheap...

Never been before any tips? Whats the best currency to take?

This morning on the drive to work I was feeling very pleased with myself. I had just one day left to go before I was off on holiday and was mulling over all the stuff I had prepared. As I mentioned in a thread way back my best mate and I were doing a travelling holiday of driving around Europe...

I resigned from my company a few weeks ago and now, they have decided to put me on gardening leave for 1 month. This ends my employment formally on 6th August. In fact, my notice period extended a week further than this, so I guess I need to pursue that outstanding week. Also, I have 15.5...

On Friday we were off to the highlands for a long weekend away. You can imagine my dismay when i discovered my rear exhaust backbox on the 124 estate split in half on Thursday night... the bit going into the rear box rusted off and was in 2 parts.... plus the outlet of the rear box was also...

Hi there, As I am now the proud owner of an E500 I am experiencing an overridding desire to go on a driving holiday in France in July. I was thinking of driving from London to Folkstone, going through the Eurotunnel and then driving South/West for 5, 6 or or 7 hours. This would get me to the...

The main issue is cost. Anywhere we can get to for £150-300 is potentially possible. Will be going in mid-late July. Really wanted to go to Belize, but flights seem too expensive. Same for Cuba I think. After great scenary, activities (scuba-diving), or beautiful building, historical stuff...

Can anybody recommend a destination for a camping holiday for a family with young children (3 and 6YO) within about 300 miles of Calais (or 1 days driving). We'll be going in the summer for about 2 weeks. Somewhere that would allow short cycling trips with a few attractions nearby would be...

Although still quite new on this forum, I thought I'd share some photo's from my recent holiday! Despite being back home for about a week, I'm only just getting over my jet lag - how hard is it to adjust when returning from the USA's west coast!! I've just had a couple of weeks in South...
