Blimey you need to be a millionare to go the centreparcs, I would have been climbing the walls after day one !
have to choose your times right ... ;):) ... Pam & I do as we like, time-wise, the two girls are both teachers-on maternity leave .. the boys took leave ... only Clara is full time ed. and at 6, wasn't any real issue to get the time for :);)
second time I've been 'dragged' there and have to admit, as I did last time ... I was impressed yet again by how well it is all sorted and that now't is too much trouble. All the staff seem happy people, lots I've spoken to have been there yeeeaars!! :cool:

they took a caning from the storms and even had to shut down for a week, 'cos of all the damage they were sustaining ... but well on the way to being fully sorted... talking a to a couple of contractors today and they love working there ... can think of worse places to be for sure.

Quick lads shut the other thread down
would that be the one with the book running on whether I'd got the coof? :ROFLMAO: ...... Covid? .. what's that?:unsure::rolleyes:
saw maybe a dozen masks in 5 days .. mostly staff in close contact ... been in their 31C pool everyday with maybe a couple of hundred ppl milling about and to be fair everyone has been pretty conscientious about space ... and the staff kept the place spotless ... it is one extremely well oiled machine (y)

Yes I bet it's fun contracting and working there, Years ago I moved a company and helped set it back up on the Isle of Wight, I used to go off on a Monday morning and come back on a Thursday evening, I stayed on a holiday park in a log cabin every week, It was like going on holiday each week I loved it

He went out of school holidays. You can easily check when school holidays are on by looking at the prices week to week at center parks.
At least he is safe and well!!
spot on Shaun ..... 6 adults, five kids ... two six bed 'lodges', so could well have fitted in another three adults ... was less than a grand ...
must say that without the tropical pool it would not be so attractive, this time of year, but that is 'all in', so with our weather it's faultless (y) ....
the kids love it, it's pretty safe/secure, no traffic as such, other than service vehicles, which crawl about and the land trains get you about all over the site, with 20 minute frequencies.
I'd go again ... subject to timing of course ;):giggle:

sadly TK we lost my co-pilot, Sparts, last June, but thanks for thinking of his welfare :cool: (y) ...
Squeak is till very much with us and was cared for by our 'nice' neighbours, who'd just returned from a ski trip in Frankland (Norway), the night before and I'd been reciprocating, tending to their kid's chickens, in their absence.
Your puss looks well impressed with his new aerial access system :love:
Squeak was well happy to see us return this evening :giggle: although he had free run of the house, I don't think it was the same for him, with out his pet humings to tend to his every need :giggle::giggle:

Sorry to learn about Sparts passing last year, There is something special about a bond that you get with a cat, It's tough when you loose one.
