What to do with a 2.7k 3 person all-incl holiday we prob. can't use (leaves this Friday 8th, Spain)


Recommended Posts

Hello kind people.

Such a pain, but we have a ?2700 all inclusive holiday for 3 in the South of Spain, Estepona, but may not be able to use it as son (12) has eye infection and he will probably not be able to swim, so could be very grumpy if we do go - this First Choice/Thompson hotel has a water park (slides etc) as the key attraction!

We probably can't sell it (apparently illegal unless we are ATOL registered(!?)), but are looking for alternative ideas

- could swap e.g. for a week in a ski chalet next winter, or

- swap for a 2 person Laser sailing boat to use in or near London.

- leave son with family and just wife and I go...

OR???? (someone may have a much better idea...)

Go on your holiday as a family and do lots of fun family things together that don't involve water.

I'm sure after this last year in GB with its weather, politics and exams (in son's case) I'm betting you are all ready for some relaxing time together. Just watch out for the evenings. 12 is about the age when boys start to notice how interesting some girls now appear, even with an eye infection !!! Have a great time.

    • I believe there is a minor injuries department at Guys, though I may have misremembered. Not very convenient for SE22 now the 40 no longer goes near. You have to get 2 buses or a train. Charging people (not sure if you mean financially or legally) would waste a lot more time, I would have thought? And  a bad bruise could be serious, depending on the cause and possibly other symptoms.
    • Good news - parliamentary debate scheduled for 19 January!

    • Hey all, A month ago 2 black youths in ski masks/balaclavas on an electric bike tried to rob me where the old Poundland was on Lordship Lane. Last night, what seemed like the same two people tried to rob a Deliveroo driver by The Great Exhibition pub while I walked past. The driver swerved and nearly crashed, and they made off. Not sure what can actually be done about this, and if any residents have spoken to police. I can only implore people not to walk around with noise-cancelling headphones on..because sadly, you will get robbed.
