Its getting towards the end of winter, the weather will start to turn nicer, leaves will be back on trees, flowers budding....etc etc etc.

Now, more important than that, have you all got your summer holiday booked? where are you going? how long for? what are you plans for the summer?

I'm going to Spain for 3 weeks in July, on a mini tour if you like, starting in Nerja, then on to Benidorm then finishing in Gandia. I can't wait, gonna get the best tan anyone has ever seen!

Hopefully will get 10 days away or so to somewhere I can just totally relax. Starting to get fed up of only going away to go to rallies and coming home completely exhausted!

That's not really Spain, it's like going to England on a mini tour of Preston, Lytham and Blackpool :p :

Although Gandia is not too far away from where I'll be for the most part of four weeks in July/August: Canet d'en Berenguer. :)

I'll try and stay out of the sun as much as possible, while laughing at the lobsters :D

I'm going boating on the Norfolk Broads with 6 people and a baby, one of which is a fisherman that plans to spend as much time fishing as possible. This combined with my phobia of fish will probably mean I'll be a quivering wreck and need another holiday to recover.

No funds for me either, although I'm sneaking in a couple of race meetings and perhaps a day or two walking in the Peak District.

:laugh: You are getting old! ;)

I've got a week booked in Majorca at the end of April, apart from that, nothing else. Although we do usually go on a couple of UK trips trought the year too. I'd like to go to Scotland at one point ,if only for the touring cars, but I'm like to explore north of Inverness.

Margaret and I have been talking about taking a car on the Plymouth to Santander ferry to do a week of touring around northern/central Spain, the ferry is a bit expensive, but it saves 2 days of driving back and forth through France. Always wanted to visit Salamanca and Segovia but funds and time have never coincided. We will probably take the Porsche, but if I take enough brave pills, and I can cram enough spares and tools in, then the TR6 might be pressed into action. :D

I've noticed it's getting dark later here already!

I think we're off to Cyprus for a week and I might head off to Spain for a little stay too :)

Back to Holland, land of absolutely delightful, poll topping children ..ahem, not that I have any interest in children other than what is natural, of course.

Maybe this time I ll take a drive down Hells Highway and check out some of the Bridge too Far sites, see what I can fiind.

Going to the USA for 3 weeks in July. Have booked a house in New England for 2 of the weeks. We will be staying in NYC as well, visiting Washington and Boston etc etc. Going to be great!
Then I will go to the Neste Oil Rally Finland in the beginning of August! Really looking forward to it.

With my new job I hope to be able to afford something good in Europe with my uni mates, if not then I might just pop off to Cornwall or something.

Basically not many ideas yet, although I guess it does need to be thought about soon!

Holiday? What holiday? :mad:

I've had only few days off from work during summers in the last 8 years. And I'm afraid that this year won't make a difference.

Sxis you should get yourself to the Masons Arms. You wont care about the rain once you've tasted the strongest beer in the world.

One holiday booked...for Amsterdam in April! :s mokin: Just a four-day excursion with a couple of mates.

Looking to go somewhere warmer around late August / September time, could be Tenerife again, could be Majorca or Greece etc. :D I work for these priviledges!
