Yes I know it wont be the temps we had in June but what the heck its better than it will be here, I'll take the chance.


You're absolutely right.
I am off for 4 days to Spain next weekend exactly for that reason, because its turning chilly here and its still 30c out there and I want a few last days with the sun on my face this summer.


I'm heading for Spain on Wednesday, expecting upper 20's :D 8)

My imagination is stretched to the ultimate, in that I need to think of somewhere special to take my OH for a week, first week in November. Probably not skiing, :( and neither of us fancy a long haul.

Ho hum.

How about Venice a good time of year not too smellie, and very romantic it also might just about make up for all those "N" holidays she has had to put up with over the years :wink:

Thats an easy one Dave. Egypt. The only place within reasonable travel distance (5 hour flight) where you can guarantee it will be warm. Canaries are volatile, Greece is often wet and windy, as for Venice....it will probably be flooded and you will be walking on planks (sounds familiar for users of this forum....)
Cyrpus is over priced if you ask me, and too full of chavvy Brits looking for somewhere to live.
