Holiday This Summer

[Bazile]

Quite a few ads on TV for holidays this summer

Is that a realistic prospect of people returning to the beaches , with the CV virus ?

Can't really see it happening. But it does appear that holiday companies seem to be getting away with holding on to peoples money for ever and a day, may be its an exercise just to fill their bank accounts by whatever means.

I won't be booking any holidays for a while.

^I don't think a lot of people will be doing either, for more reasons than covid, loss of jobs will also be a big factor I would think. I hope I'm very wrong, but I don't see any quick ending to the damage its doing to the economy in all areas, a holiday may well be the last thing people will be thinking of. A lot of financial suffering is not seen, like people losing their homes.

[barry1010]

And a lot of people have not been affected at all, financially, with some even better off.

[teacake44]

Agreed, but I doubt much will be spent on holidays, the latter is about enjoying yourself and relaxing, I can't see that being possible any time soon. Just really go's to show that money, even if you have it, don't buy all.

Apart from a rebooked trip to Maastricht we are pencilling in things for 2022 only

[Bobbisox1]

Yep, got one booked already :0)

[Maydup]

I'll be pleased if we get a few nights away in this country. I coukd do with a change of scenery but cant imagine booking anything expensive or abroad.

[Bobbisox1]

Ours was booked as long ago as last April Maydup ,I'll carry on with a glass half full here ;)

[teacake44]

Best idea Maydup, anyone hoping for a holiday abroad must be in cookoo land.

[Bazile]

Is that in this country , Bobbi ?

[Maydup]

Of course Bobbi, and lets hope you get away for a wonderful holiday. I'm just not feeling like booking from scratch. Where? When? Happy to wait and see for a while longer.

[Bobbisox1]

No, it's in Lanzarote Baz, I'm the eternal optimist , always have been , moaning isn't my forte ,

[Prudie]

I'm with you bobbi. I can only think from other answers on here that there is no vaccine and no roll-out and we will carry on shut up all year as as we have in 2020.

[Bobbisox1]

Hi Maydup, we have many friends there, if I don't get then I'll accept it as such

[teacake44]

When you study the facts, its pretty obvious to most.

It might be either 'remembering' this thread ;0)
