I love my parents in law and really enjoy any opportunity to spend time with them. Last year my husband and I had a fortnight together in Greece and the whole time I was away I was thinking that my parents in law would have loved the holiday. I've booked the same holiday again for us this year and just had confirmation that my parents in law are going to join us.........I'm so, so pleased I have a silly grin on my face and actually did a little celebratory jig. A whole fortnight in the sun with three of my most favourite people! grin grin grin
Anyone else thinking about holidays yet?

Sadly couldn't download my silly walk in the wind but have posted a couple of pics of North Uist.

In that case newist you will be getting lots of frogs hopping about this year, so fascinating to watch, that you will forget all about holidays!

We are going to Suffolk for a few days in February, then to a pub in the Peak District in March. We have a holiday to look forward to in N Wales, thanks to GN, in June and after that we have no plans.

For the last couple of years we have had babies and weddings (in that order!!) cluttering up our diaries grin but, as nothing is on the horizon in that department this year, we might go on another river cruise although, generally, we are happy to have a leisurely look around our own country.

UPDATE: We have decided on <A HREF="http://premium.secureholiday.net/en/626/index.html?1=1">Camping Haliotis</A> in Normandy (or "Camping Halitosis" as the wife calls it) for our main holiday site, coming back to spend a week in <A HREF="http://www.chateau-gandspette.com/">Camping Château du Gandspette</A> before our ferry back. Sent emails to them both yesterday - Gandspette have replied confirming or booking, but we are still waiting for Haliotis.

Aha - links not working then.

I think you may have gone about linking it up the hard way, lefthanded If you look down beneath the comments box, you will find the easy way to do it.

Of course. I am so used to writing HTML (it's what a did for a living for many years) that it comes naturally to me - I should have realised that this site would use BBCode instead.

Another lesson learned blush
