Anyone else not able to go on a proper holiday this year because they can't afford it ...and feeling miserable about it blues

If I have to smile and say "that's great!" one more time as someone tells me they are going to Thailand / Mexico / New Zealand I think I will crack up!

sure take a few days down the country somewhere or get a boat to England, go some where nice like that lake district
The thing I hate is flying, You spend 3 hours in an Airport checking in bored out of your brain, You have a few drinks to combat the boredom and that tell you your too drunk to be let on the plane, I hate Airportslaugh

I love travelling and it really gets to me when I can't afford to go anyway. Even a European city break is out of the question at the moment moping

I could always set up camp in the zoo and pretend I was in Africa or something uh oh

You would be best not reading my travel list i put on here the other day but it can be done cheaply. If you get in early & have the correct payment card ( to avoid booking fees ) flights can cost next to nothing. Also cashback websites such as & others sites like can help you save money. I feel hard done by if i don't go abroad at least 8 times per year & i am certainly not rich. Think positive Orla & i'm sure you can have a nice break somewhere later in the year hug
