Hello all
Havent been on for while as been on my hols, nothing flash just a week away in New Quay wales.....beautiful costal town, went dolphin watching, a boat trip on the beach etc etc. We dont go away much purely due to money and not having alot!! So in Jan i booked our first hols away at a lovely holiday park, I got the holiday half price so I was chuffed to bits.
We arrived settled in and went explore, The holiday parks are soo canny with their lay outs, to get to the swimming pool you have to walk through the arcarde area (cannot pass without a go on every 2p machine!!), then the kids club area( lots of promotinal stuff to buy) then the cafe with slush machine etc! So although the swimming is free, you get the pull of "Can I Have" etc as you walk through. I know I may sound like a miser or a tight wad but it does add to a tight budget. Then four days in our car died!!!! We were now stranded in the money pit for two days!! Car returned back with a receipt for £300 YIKES!!!So what I thought was going to be a cheap holiday turned into a big expensive one!!
Oooh feel so much better for the vent!! Dont want to put a downer on anyone elses holiday......just hope its better than ours, Just wanted to vent to make myself feel better so thanks for listening
