I'm sorry this is not really related to Dulwich, but I wondered if anyone could give me some advice? I want to book a holiday for myself and my twin sons who are 15. Everywhere I look is pretty expensive as they seem to charge 15 year olds as adults, so would it be wise to hang on and book a late deal? Do these really work out much cheaper? I'm thinking of going at the beginning of july.

Leave them at home - I found being left when my parents went on holiday very character building - I learnt to cook, to remove spiders from shower without being scared etc etc etc. Hopefully they won't mess the place up and the women in their later lives will thank you.

We are taking two 15 year olds to Cuba, a bit further afield I know. BUT where we are going is 24 hr all inclusive which includes all boat rides and activities. 24hr food and drinks so they wont be tapping me every 5 mins! PLUS It comes highly recommended as being safe for teens.

For four of us it is costing ?3600 which I think is very good value for money.

We booked with Thomas Cook on 0800 072 6055.

If you stay in Sol Cayo Coco the childs age limit is 16 ( I didnt see that until I had booked mine grr).

We are staying at Brisas Guardalavaca. One of my friend's goes there about 3 x a year so we know it's ok.

We took four boys - ages 15-17 - to the Algarve for a week and they loved it. Great hotel (booked the day before we left), lots of night life, safe for the boys to go out wandering, very English pubs and clubs, great beaches. Look for anything near the beach in Algarve and it should be inexpensive and easy to find. have fun!! Fly into Faro airport, coach from there to the hotel. Go for a package so that breakfast is included (if they wake up for it!!)

    • I completely agree with you, Angelina. But it's worth noting that no one else has a problem with her, or finds her rude /  has mentioned her aggressively banging gates / ringing doorbells etc. 
    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
