I love holidays. I go on a couple every year. Good fun and can experience a different place with a different view and eat some good food. What I don’t like on returning is the disappointment of going home and especially the last holiday of the summer when I know I have to wait 9-12 months for my next holiday. This year I tried the whole not going away on holiday thing and it’s actually okay as I live near a beach anyway and had some sun and with cocktails and decent food and some good days out so I’m happy.

@Gingerbreadspice I may be wrong but I think there is a slight difference within how we use the definition of holidays from America to other countries. Here holidays is like Christmas, Halloween, Thanksgiving things of that nature but I totally understand why you responded how you did. Those are vacations here and I really need to go on one bad lol😅❤❤

@SunKiss3d If you mean national holidays then Christmas and or Easter is the main two. I guess it depends on cultural differences that have their own national or public holidays or a celebration day. We have bank holidays usually on a Sunday or Monday and when we have a big country celebration like the queen jubilee or VE Day celebration recently, then that’s often a national British holiday. Of course the Irish have St Patrick’s day and I’m sure in Scotland they have their own holidays as well. Where the British usually take vacations is usually Spain or Grease and or similar countries and the Brits favourite part of the UK is the south coast of England where the sea is blue, sandy beaches, palm trees and quaint little streets and shops.
