When was the last time you went on holiday?

7 years ago for me, how about you?

Depends on what exactly what you mean by a holiday.....people have different definitions

Can't even remember.
I think my passport must have expired at least 15 years ago - not that it was used much.
You've bought more TVs than I've had holidays, that's for sure.

Went to Disney World Orlando in April. Going to Malaga in a few days (for a conference).

I thought you were going to say you'd booked a holiday but cancelled it!

I suppose I mean going on a plane or ship eg going abroad.

Had dogs for the last fourteen years, so haven't been abroad since. Usually have 3 holidays in the UK, a main two weeks and two week-long breaks.

Well he couldn't return it..

In that case seven years. All other breaks have been in UK

I went to Malta, when I was 13 and had a family. I just turned 53 so 40 years. Need to stop buying HIFI and get a trip to somewhere nice!

Last weekend to Marseilles for the rugby finals. March was South Africa for the rugby URC matches. Before that January for the rugby European Cup. Bit of a trend emerging there!

It's a strange on for me. I'm not a fan of holidays per se. However I happily go away to follow sport or concerts.

My passport has long expired too but not that long ago. Can’t see me renewing mine for years.

I have not been at work this last week.

Hadn’t flown for over a decade, but went to Spain for the F1 Grand Prix a couple of weeks ago. Enjoyed it very much, stayed in Lloret de Mar, and managed a couple of side trips too. Unfortunately, Covid was an unexpected souvenir, but not had serious symptoms. Only on public buses did any masks get worn.

Back to Malta, that's where my last holiday was....

2009 - Thailand. Done Far East, Canada, Middle East and most of Europe working/holidays. Passport expired 2017 and I have no inclination to renew as I'm done with airports. The only place I would go back to would be Egypt, (not the Red Sea resorts - The Nile), wonderful country, wonderful people. I'm more of a culture vulture than sunseeker. If we get the weather I really don't think the UK can be beaten.

These days I'm just happy with visiting a golf course

 

[Gray]

Did a cockpit visit on a trip to America (my brother is a plane geek - I'm just a plain geek).
In September of that year (2001) cockpit visits ceased.

I’ve done most of Europe too.

Recently, flew up to Glasgow and stayed up on the shore of Loch Lomond in a castle apartment, with a hire car. Just glorious! Some lovely meals out as well. Hanging around for hours airside is tedious, though.

Not gone abroad for donkey's years.

Last proper holiday was about two years ago (only U.K. though), although did manage a 4 day break last year to Edinburgh where I managed to catch the Ray Harryhausen exhibition.

I used to be a plane geek too. First opportunity when I joined FedEx was a walk around one of their wide-body freighters, they're not as big as they seem when all the seats are removed. Pre 9/11 employees could jump-seat around the globe for free.

Still find planes impressive but not a geek anymore, I guess 18 years of being around them has cured me of this

Completely missed that there was Harryhausen exhibition. Would have loved to have seen it.
