I’m a firm fan of having something to look forward to in January, so I was delighted when Super Break asked us if we would like to try a London Theatre Break from their website. January is a pretty dull month after all the Christmas celebrations so it was lovely to have a short city…
I’ve wanted to visit the city of Edinburgh for as long as I can remember. When the opportunity arose to spend 2 days in Edinburgh I couldn’t say no to a quick city break. I was searching on Expedia for flights and hotels for trips to Edinburgh and I found some great deals. I found some…
Did I mention that I visited Venice recently for a short break. Oh, you heard! Sorry about that. I’m getting old, and repeat myself a lot these days. If you caught my post about ‘How To Visit Venice On A Budget’, you’ll already know that money was a consideration when booking the trip. I’ve also…
