I spent 9 grand this year, but it was my wedding and honeymoon!

Usually for me and the other half is about 2 grand!

I like to go abroad and wherever I go has to be more comfortable than my home, otherwise I might as well not bother!

I like all inclusive, that way you know what you're spending

The girlfriend and I usually spend about £1200 between us for a 4 or 5 star city break every year. This year is Copenhagen, so it'll probably be a bit more. I don't like inclusive holidays, I like to go exploring and find little cafes and restaurants.

so it would seem it's around £1000-1500 ish average

as we live in Cornwall and have a camper we just go away every weekend it doesn't rain, 38 nights last year

my missus is always telling me it would be cheaper to have a week abroad but time i have a week off work unpaid (self employed ) and then the £1000-1500 for the holiday + airport car park spending money etc we just couldn't afford it

the camper cost £300 to tax, insure and MOT ish
camp sites cost us about £300 (we camp at classic car shows for free july and august)
fuel around £250-300

add £100 for something i have forgotten and we are at the lower end of that scale £1000 but we get almost 40 nights for that not just 1 week in the sun somewhere

So this whole thread was just a way of you showing Mrs Bungle what a good idea the Camper is and to quit moaning about never having a 'proper' holiday

Respect! :highfive:
