Default Summer Holiday
I've found the perfect summer holiday that I'm going to book later. The family love Center Parcs and we've avoided booking the UK ones as they're so expensive during the school holidays. The ones on the continent are far cheaper even when you factor in ferry and fuel costs. So I'm going to book the one in Eifel. The question is when do I tell the wife its only a 20 minute drive from the Ring? :

a) now
b) when we load up the scoob instead of the MPV
c) when I get asked why it takes me 2 hours to pick up the milk every morning, or
d) just keep quiet

A then if your met with resistance go D then move on to C when suspicion is aroused!! B could prevent the car even getting a sniff of the ring!

It was even better than that as I found a link that gave an additional 150 Euros off. The tunnel was paid for with Tesco clubcard vouchers. So a bargain for the family summer holiday! I wonder if I could convince the missus we've saved so much money I can hire a GT3 84 sleeps to go! Won't be the same without you lot though
