Good friends, popping back into your life, when you think you've lost them forever ;D (you know who you are) and of course, meeting new ones ;D ;D ;D Sorry, but I'd have to class that as two answers. I'll let you off just this once ( ) but I reckon they're numbers 3 & 4 for you 5. Oldie dog chews through your internet cable and OH somehow manages to fix it. That's a biiiiggggg smile for me tonight ;D

Taba Heights, Egypt - Luxury Hotel in the middle of nowhere. Literally, nothing around for hundreds of miles. You couldn't buy a book, a paper, or mens underpants. (I had forgotten to pack OH's). So we had to get a coach to Cairo (500Km) and stay overnight, and get the coach back the next day. We were driven for 9 hours through desert each way, and the strangest thing was every now and then you would see a soldier in a little tardis sized guard box, just guarding.... I dunno, the sand I suppose? Random! This was our journey mapI have just noticed on said map that Eilat and Aqaba are just up the road from our hotel but the only 'traffic' that came into and out of our hotel was this 'luxury coach trip to Cairo' Worst week of my life (holiday wise).

3. A lovely, small caravan site in the UK, could only take a max of 5 units. Fab? Yep, until you realise the toilet and shower are actually in an annexe off the owners' kitchen...not too great when that's where their working collie sleeps, especially when he takes a dislike to you

4. My mother's idea of Heaven, she arranged it - a Family Holiday, in one house, in Yorkshire where it rained for 10 days. Mum, Dad, 2 sisters and me + OH's and 8 assorted kids + 2 hamsters - ages 6months to 68yrs. It nearly turned into a murder mystery plot My mother still says 'Do you remember that lovely holiday in Yorkshire, that was the best Holiday I've ever had

5. Another camping tale On-site toilet turned out to be a porta pottie in a shed. Ok, it was a nicely kitted out shed. The really, ermm, awkward bit was that we were parked in a field of tethered goats.....and had Tinker and Walter with us

Just remembered, how could I forget a sandy beach holiday when both my boys were little. First day, unpack everything on the beach, kids run in the sea, one comes out with huge gash on bottom of foot, pack up in a rush and spend hours in casualty while he's stitched up. Following evening, other son falls out of top bunk ( he slept in top bunk at home and never fell out once ) spend hours in casualty while his chin is stitched up. Result = neither kid is allowed on the beach for the remainder of the holiday - deep joy trying to keeping them amused
