The one in France was when I was 17, I arrived at the coach station in London alone, not knowing anyone and boarded a bus with a load of other 16-18 year olds for our two week adventure in France. With them I had two holidays in England and one in France. What I really wanted to do was get away from my parents, like any teenagers so I could get up to what I wanted, and I achieved this through the discovery of PGL. Which came in very handy in the summer of '86 when I met a young mademoiselle who showed me that French girls were a little more forward thinking than their equivalents back home in my church youth group. The camping holidays also extended into France by the mid 80s and I even had my own tent. Perhaps this was just as it was back then.Įventually as I grew older and my voice became heard I was able to negotiate some input into the holidays, and I did manage to persusade my dad to take me to Blackpool for a few days one summer but even then I had to endure a week of tramping up and down mountains in the lake district first - something I find absolutely dismal. Now I don't want to sound as if I am being unduly harsh - for all I know it was like this for all families and I certainly don't recall my schoolmates at primary school jetting off to sunnier climes, and certainly no-one ever went on holiday in term time. Prior to 1985 I set foot out of the country once - on a horrendous day trip to France on a cross channel ferry in 1979. As for fun things such as Butlins or Disneyworld, this was the stuff of fantasy. This frequently involved camping and B&B's - never hotels and certainly never abroad. Yes we always had one, but it was invariably in the UK, invariably on the cheap, and invariably based around what the parents wanted to do. Let's start with my childhood - this covers the period up to my mid teens.īack in the 70s and early 80s holidays never seemed to be that big a priority. Think back to your past, any particular year and I am willing to bet you have just as many memories of your two week holiday that year as the rest of the 50 weeks put together.Ī quick potted history of my holidays, to set the context for my current dilemna. They are something that define us, make for long lasting memories, snapshots of our life at key times. Never underestimate the importance of holidays. However, as our life moves through it's different stages our holiday needs change, just as our life needs change. We may all have our own ideas as to what constitutes the perfect holiday. The weather's gone off and it's gone a bit rainy which always makes me think of holidays. Who knows - all I know, is it's getting harder and harder to find the right holiday for "me". Or perhaps they didn't do their homework. But who knows - perhaps these are the sort of people who moan about everything anyway.
