Had our second vaccines so ready to go at the end of May to the Isle of Wight, can't wait.

Still using our masks and being sensible old ladies and keeping our distance.
Hubby and I have another trip booked for July and August UK again.
Hope everyone as a lovely time where ever they go, we all need this, I have been very weepy of late.

Maybe - eventually - in England/Scotland. (If allowed.) Nowhere else.

Somerset in September for us and hopefully Portugal in May 2022.

IOW is definitely in the uk lol

Well as long as they keep their boarders open

Isle of Wight is in England so yes it is part of UK. I did my midwifery training there years ago and is lovely. Much bigger than it looks on a map with very varied scenery and climate. I'm sure you will love it. South coast is warm with palm trees in places more like Europe. We lived in Cowes which is or was the main yachting town and bought small motor bikes to get around but also used the buses. Had badges which said "I'm not a tourist, I live here!" on them.

Sorry, my last sentence is a mess.

I meant - I really do hope it will be possible to go but I shall again see how the land lies after Christmas.

BlueBelle Tue 23-Mar-21 14:00:27

Are you sure you can get in Isle of Wight ? I d make a few checks before you pay the rest off

Tangerine Tue 23-Mar-21 13:59:49

I shall possibly go on holiday in the UK later this year but want to see how the land lies.

I shan't go out of the UK until 2022. I really do hope it will be able to go but I shall again see how the land lies after Christmas.

We had a cottage booked for last year in the UK and postponed it until the end of June this year, so hopeful that we can get there. We are glad we did this, so many people have decided to holiday at home this year and lots of cottages are already fully booked.

We have booked a remote cottage for September. Booked it towards the end of last year before this last wave of Covid

Septimia Tue 23-Mar-21 09:15:44

We're booked for June (in the UK) but are prepared to have to delay it.

ninathenana Tue 23-Mar-21 08:54:59

We are looking at booking a cottage in S.W in September. We had a booking for Warners which was postponed from last April but have decided we prefer to be alone with the current situation.

rosie1959 Tue 23-Mar-21 06:56:47

Yes but obviously in the UK
We have holidays booked for the end of May early June and July to Jersey
Have every intention of going why not ?
Pointless having all these vaccines if we are still going to hide at home and I for one have had enough of that

Calendargirl Tue 23-Mar-21 06:50:04

No, I’m not.

jeanie99 Tue 23-Mar-21 06:48:14

My holiday with my friend was originally booked for last, that didn't happen.
We thought we would book for 2021 not thinking we would still be coping still with Corvid.
As far as we know it's not been cancelled and we need to pay beginning of April so off we will go.
Isle of Wight is not a place I've never visited and I can't wait.
We'll both have had our second vaccine but I'll still wear a mask.
Is anyone else holidaying?
