I haven't.
Not yet anyhow.

Will be heading over to Republic of Ireland in the Summer.

I may go to a couple of European Countries too but made no decision as yet.
Actually fancy heading to Austria as it's a while since I was there.
Depends on workload as well however.

I agree with you Glenn.

I don't see why it bothers anyone else what another individual enjoys as a Holiday.

I am sure there is a better word

I've never been to a Disney Resort.

In what way do they rip the customer off? I'm genuinely curious because I wouldn't actually put it past Disney to do that.:laugh:

I think Zizu was commenting on the current trend on the Internet in general to hate Disney.

I don't understand why companies increase prices when most people are struggling to even keep a roof over their head.

Company's charge what people are prepared to pay, it's simple economics and it's how it has always been

well many do until they go bust as what they provide does not meet expectations..

I've been very fortunate this year I've been to Portugal, Colorado, and I've just got back from a few days golfing in Cornwall. I think that's it for me for the rest of the year though but I might sneak in a random solo trip somewhere. I'd really like to do a road trip through the French countryside so I might do that in either spring or autumn

But if people are struggling to even keep a roof over their head, they're going to find it hard to pay for increased prices of a product, thus losing potential customers.

That's not just about Disney either, as a lot of Video Game companies think it's great to charge nearly £70 for one Video Game, and then act shocked when said Video Game doesn't sell enough to make them money back.

i've done that and it's magical. There are so many french villages that are basically still medieval. I'm sure that graveyards depicted in video games are straight from france :laugh:

…the only thing that I have firmly booked atm is a visit to the Peak District in early summer with my brother…we kind of started a childhood nostalgia road trip last year in Northumberland, which we’re going to continue in stages of re-visiting all of our old childhood family holiday places/memories of our partners as well…we do have other thoughts but nothing else fixed and booked as yet…it’s a fairly open year, as they say…

Ammi 01-04-2024 06:51 AM

…have a wonderful Disney holiday, Zizu…you’re there now, I think…enjoy the magic…:love:…
