summer holidays
 

is anyone of on holiday this year? where abouts are you going?

I will be leaving you all for sunnier Spanish shores on Saturday for six weeks :blush:

Are you Spanish?

nope, I have family who are :)

How can you have family who are and you not be? D: I meant like are you of decent lol

I'm not going away unfortunately.

But I have two weeks of tutoring at my 'acting school' which should make up for it.

you can be related to people who are from a place but not be from that place yourself, like the Queen and Prince Philip are related one is from England the other Greece

hope the weather improves for you Black D, it's sposed to get better on Saturday they're saying :D

Nope and so far it's been one of the most depressing summers ever :"(

hasn't it just? I can't believe the rain it's awful

First year since 2007 I'm not going away :bawling: But the olympics :amazed: So it might be a good 6 weeks of nothing, I need that tbh

Yeah, supposed to be warm here the next couple of weeks.

I'll try for a tan. <3

I'm off to Spain as well in 3 weeks time for 2 and a half weeks

are you going anywhere interesting Niamh?

Going to Majorca on Saturday. I've been off six weeks now and it gets boring so I cant wait for two weeks of doing something different

We have a house over there, about a half hour south of Reus

ooh very nice :D

you need a holiday from your holiday!! :laugh:

Yeah, it's a nice spot, it's not in a very touristy area and the people are lovely even though my Spanish/Catalan isn't good and not many of them speak a word of English either but they're really helpful. I'll need to get some lessons from you fruity :laugh:

Where abouts do you go to?

aha, yes Niamh, I will have to start a thread! although it would have to be only Spanish as I know very little Catalan unfortunately. I don't know your part of Spain that well. I was in Barcelona but it was about 20 years ago now. We stay in Santander, but I'm thinking of going Camping this summer to Galicia with a few friends and relatives. Hopefully it won't rain although the weather in the north is not as reliable as the south. Either way it can't be any worse than this terrible, terrible summer we're having!!

I love the north though, it's much greener up there and less over run with holiday developments, I would have loved to get a house somewhere near Barcelona but I'd need to win the lottery first :laugh:

I'm going to Paris for a week or two at the end of August so that should be fun. :D
