Actually Ive just read my "contributions" to this thread and can only agree with jacqueline that ive come across as a totally pompous tit. I'll put it down to overtiredness and pmt (pre-mental tension as my friend puts it)
I used to be really snobby about holidays. I was one of those people who holidayed in quaint wee cottages and "gites" until I split from my ex and had to come up with a holiday for me and the children for a few hundred pounds.
I bit the bullet and went to a caravan park and my children loved it. Loads to do, lots of food outlets, evening entertainment and fabulous swimming pool. It met every single one of their needs. Okay so I personally would have preferred a gondola in Venice but at the end of the day, cultural snobbery aside, they had a great time and I was able to afford it for them.
Ha ha, we are all tits here!
I was a single mum and had years of having to make do and enjoyed every minute of it too. Trust me though when things ease up and you have a few more wrinkles and bulges, your desire for luxury will return.
I think most of us have struggled at one time or another and there is a great difference between being a snob who has never struggled and who looks down on others and one who just really doesn't want to make do any more.
I commend you my darling for admitting you are a tit, just like the rest of us here! :green:
