perfect summer/autumn holiday destination ideas

[chef]

ok, i know this is early but talk in the office at the moment is xmas/new year and general availabilty etc.

that got me thinking about 2008 holidays when I hit the big 30..

to celebrate the miracle that I'm still alive despite the alcohol abuse I've put my body through over the years, I was thinking of going somewhere extra special for a break in 2008..

Cleethorpes. They have everything the bleeding dagoes have got plus you don't need to learn their stupid language!

Weather is fab 27-30 every day. Cheep food and drink
How small are the little ones? Goa is not pushchair friendly, no footpaths.
Tap water not safe to drink, blackouts sometimes.

Have you had them campling before? If they ok then they will be ok in Goa.

Goa is perfect weather in January & February. Not a cloud in the sky and a bit quieter after the Christmas/New Year peak season.
Have seen lots of people out there with young children and the locals are very welcoming, although obviously common-sense is required regarding hot sun, drinking bottled water etc.
Wish I was going again this Winter

Sorry Chef hijacked your thread !

Little uns are 2.5 and very little. I assume they'll need jabs, is there any malaria ?
