What is everyone planning for the year ahead then?
I'm not sure what we will do, probably Llyn Peninsula and Anglesey for a 10 day trip in May but I need to plan something for my 60th in September
It's quite difficult to plan, my Mother is not doing too well, not sure how long she is going to last and my dog is almost 15 and has slight heart failiure, I don't fancy putting her through the vet rigmarole to go abroad so if she's still with us in September we may do Scotland rather than cross the channel

If I can get someone to come help the missus then me and my mate are of round France for 6 weeks in April. Already booked for the Isle of White in June and hopefully get back to Pembrey Park that you recommended.

I've been looking at the Dordogne for a month or more later this when it warms up a bit, it was perishing while in Ypres this week, and I'm sure our 'new' dog is probably looking forward to it as well.
Not sure where the wife's going .........

Im just planning to try and stay alive but its not going very well. if your thinking of Scotland then try the Isle of Arran. From the piccies you post I think you would love it. You can do a combination of wilding and campsites if you must and there are even a couple of CL sites. If your interested, Im your man, it was our second home for many years. Its easy to get to as well. sites.google.com/site/hanktestsite2/blog/the-isle-of-arran

End of Jan, off to France for three months. Then back home for three months, then back to France again, with motorcycle this time, for some great French Alps rideouts.

We were planning to re-register the MH so we could have 'MOT' done in Poland instead of UK and then go to Italy and Greece, but finding out that 18.6% tax on MH value would be due(See my thread 'Import tax in EU') has caused a re-think. Greece and UK are not exactly on the same route and our time away is severely limited.
Tax of £3,300 buys a lot of diesel to UK. So re-think is needed.

I'd love to travel down to Portugal but while I work and have so many family responsibilities the longest we can escape for at any one time is 17 days. If we go to Europe I'm thinking Italian lakes but that thought will change 100 times before September
Or I could just stay in the UK and go to more music festivals

Going to Bristol, Baltic Wharf for a few days in Feb, only time I could get in. Karen is 60 this year so have booked an Adriatic cruise for a week at the end of June, never been on a cruise before so hope it's OK. As For the MH with FIL's health we will just get away when we can.
