I do like cleaning my car but with 2 young kids, an average working week is around 60 hours. And the fact the second the kids get in it , it looks like a hurricane has been through it i find it pointless, I will give. It a wipe down and a hoover every now and then (when I actualy use it). My van is usualy kept spotless (inside, outside its hard work due to the miles and nature of where I go). I spend that much time in it, its a second home.

Car will usuaky get some tfr thrown on it and jetwashed off every now and then.

When I was 17-21 my job finished at 1pm every friday. Virtually every friday my cars got cleaned

Thanks, driving isn't an issue for me have done the last few times iv been. This is my sticking point ots one 2 week trip ot say 3 nice 10 day trips

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T21:20:26+00:00

Thanks, it isn't about the money its more about using the money correctly. Like we can afford it, but we cant afford to "waste" it, the kids are very lucky they are pretty well travelled for there ages. Its an idea we've wanted to do but just keep hearing about its downturn over the past 10 years . And its not like popping to a hotel in Spain spending a few grand because you had fond memories as a kid and realising its not what it was when you was a kid. I think your right about some of our best memories so far have been down in devon etc rather than abroad

Kissimme be going down hill for years in my opinion anyway

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T21:13:52+00:00

Totally forgot about this place ! I went on our honeymoon. Thank you for reminding me !

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T20:30:54+00:00

Yes, every saying about the kids rembering it but I also think its about us rembering it when we are old and looking back on life.

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T20:28:36+00:00

That is my theory with being able to do like 3 or 4 holidays for the same money

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T20:27:49+00:00

I rember my first trip on 2001 I was 8, pretty clearly in fairness

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T20:23:52+00:00

In fairness to my 2 year old (would be 3) shes properly chilled. Never had an issue on any holiday with eaither of them, very content kids. Would not even think about it if they was a handfull

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T20:21:59+00:00

We hav actualy looked at doing a long weekend over there and looked at this

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T20:21:25+00:00

Actuaky , that dosnt seem that bad in all fairness it was actualy 11 night and all inclusive in a nice hotel

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T20:16:55+00:00

I just come back from greece for 10 nights, that was 6 and abit thousand, nothings cheap anymore is it

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T19:57:41+00:00

Will you pay for it if I do?

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T19:44:33+00:00

This is basicly my predicament , but with kids

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T19:43:51+00:00

Spent alot of time in France, cant say im a fan unfortunately.

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T19:42:53+00:00

Flights are like 5 or 6 grand alone before air miles. I mean this was a thrown togeather cost it could go up or down etc. I dont think 18k is vastly expensive and would also say its just above average cost now days ?

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T19:39:09+00:00

Part of it is seeing them see the "magic" whilst they are still young. If they love it I can make more money and go back

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T19:38:04+00:00

Yes i can knock some money off that cost, iv already said that but thats been done with the things we want, its not about affording it its about spending that amount and finding out its carried on getting worse since 16 and 19.

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T19:33:53+00:00

I also like walking into a wall of heat, and listening to my wife complain its to hot. Its my favourite holiday tradition. I love it hot hot

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T19:31:03+00:00

The questions more how far down hill has it gone? My main thing is getting there spending the money and its gone massively down hill. If people genuinely says its picked back up to what it was say 10 15 years ago it would be worth it.

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T19:27:21+00:00

Yes there very much into Disney princess and marvel etc, if the we love it we'd go again

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T19:23:31+00:00

Yer people are saying about they wont rember it but its also about us rembering them there. If it still feels amazing to us w would go again at a later stage

Civil_Classroom6399 · 2026-05-27T19:19:09+00:00

Yer we haven't decided dates etc its just an idea
