Thankyou both, we'll try! I think my dad realises things are tight although he has no idea the whole situation. They decided rather than buying me something at Christmas they would pay for a week away for us, which is fabulous although I am gutted to be missing the ff get together! I hope you all have a lovely time x
I hope we do meet at Christmas Lesley! We are going to Skegness, before the school holidays so it shouldn't be too busy but hopefully the weather will be kind. My little girl is looking forward to spending the week on the beach x

Unless anyone offers to organise one in that region then no, it is usually the Midlands as it is easy for most people to get to.

Well there you go... you have heard of hen and stag weekends.... so an IVA weekend in Skeggy..... hmmm not sure how I feel about this [:I] [:I] [:I] Think I'm about 90 mins away from Skeggy
Not for me thanks Lesley - been an expensive year so far with the wedding and the baby so have no spare cash at all!!

My suggestion for the weekend, was me being a little facetious (sp?) and was not meant to be taken seriously, it's just that the subject of Skeggy came up. NOT KNOCKING SKEGGY AT ALL, had many a good day out there. But times are hard enough for all in an IVA without expensive weekends at the seaside to cough up for.
