Morning Bright and sunny here.
Holiday sounds nice Elaine. I don’t know to try and book somewhere or not .
I bet prices have gone up !!!! Not looked yet.

I didn’t notice they had gone up. I checked the deposit was refundable before I booked it. They are going fast though. I’m taking the dogs though so that totally narrowed down the searches..not many places let you take three dogs. You shouldn’t find too many difficulties..unless you want to dog sit my three for the week and take them with you?

Im booked to go to the New Forest in June booked in January its rolled over from the 2 that was cancelled last year. Had to change the weeks though cos the first week she was fully booked (she only has 3 rooms). Hopefully I'll get away cos boy do i need a holiday. Just got to hope that the pubs are open cos if theyre not no holiday as its a b&b.

Seems like we all have the same idea! Last week we booked a week in June, on the Moray coast. Hope we're not being too optimistic, as our timetable is slightly different from yours down south. Ours is fully cancellable until a week before we go, just in case.

Hi snappers
A holiday would be nice but not booking anything yet
I’ve just been for a short walk along the edge of Seven Fields and took these photos

It’s so lovely to see the trees in blossom

[RED HEAD]

Absolutely gorgeous Mary. It does lift the spirit to see blossom.

Elaine... Err , one dog is enough, but 3 , sorry no thank you.
Margo, that sounds nice, and Sandra hope you get to go this time.

I’ve just looked at a place we have been before near Bath, in a cabin.
It’s gone up to £1,000 for 5 nights. !!!! Last time it was about £650.

Wow! That’s steep. We have booked a detached cottage for 7 nights for £450. It’s not top spec luxury admittedly but it looks very nice and is a stones throw from the coast and nature reserve which will be good for the dogs. It’s all about location..and availability!
Ellie..where’s your spirit of adventure?
Your trip sounds nice Margo.
I hope to get a few days away later in the year to the New Forest (without the dogs) too Sandra. I have to convince DH first though...and hope the timetable for the road map doesn’t change either!

We are not booking anything yet either. IF - and that's a big IF - we do manage to get away I want to go to Greece (well, obviously!!) but will wait until the very last minute to see what the situation is both here and there. We know plenty of very quiet locations - hardly any tourists - that we could head for. Also our family issues will have a bearing on this as well. but, come what may, I hope you all enjoy whatever you end up doing.

I'm not looking at holidays yet this year. Where in Norfolk are you going Elaine?

I love the blossom Mary ... love the reflections Maggie
I have finally come up for air after a craft room re-organise - almost finished.

We have two holidays booked - all fully cancellable at 24 hours notice. And the prices have almost doubled since I booked them a month ago

We are having a four day trip to Portmerion and Wales in June and a four day trip to Cornwall in September

I have photos from yesterday which are water pictures

Lovely Sandbanks Karen. Alas cannot see the others.

Maggie, I love Cromford Mill and the canal walk. Spent many a happy hour down there.
Lovely photo.
