Anyone recommend any decent campsites    Within 2hrs of Manchester? Preferably with a pool 

Long time ago when we went

Lakeland, Haven site at Flookburgh near Grange-over-sands in the South lakes, only 1hr 15mins away.

Indoor and outdoor pools, great place for the kids with plenty to do

PS The electric pitches are best obvs..

Looks nice

I'd better get looking for something if you've already booked

Might be a return to agios gordios 

Prices are a lot lower - that was also a bonus

Tavernas all look good

We booked Georges with the pool so right near the beach and front

Was going to do Kef again but having a change

You're like an old man, get somewhere different booked, there's thousands of islands out there, get to Lakka on Paxos for a change

Told you, I don't think I can be arsed with ferries

Other than that, looks great

Won a few quid in our Last Man Standing at the weekend so just booked two nights in Berlin in December. Return flights and staying in Park Inn on Alexanderplatz for £280 including breakfast so not bad at all. Christmas markets, currywurst and (hopefully) Union Berlin v Hoffenheim, that'll do for me.

Stayed in AG on 3 seperate occassions serveral times, in fact before the easiness of booking flights and hotels via the internet, my travel agent who booked my Greek holidays was based in AG, her name was Robin. Had to and pick some flight tickets up from her around 93 when I was staying in Benitses. Got to the tracel agents and the tickets were in somebody else is name, she'd just crossed it out and written our names on in biro. The departure staff and cabin crew never blinked an eye at the tickets, before 9/11 though when air travel security was very lax to say the least

Looking at Mexico for next year - any recommendations would be appreciated or any avoids !!

Hearing a lot of decent reports to be honest.

Stayed in Playacar just outside Playa del Carmen once at the New Rui Palace and twice at the Rui tequila (before it was done up)

Really nice place, beach is stunning gated Area so nice and safe but Carmen only a short walk away.

Last trip we stayed at the Royalton wow what a Hotel.just to far out of the way for us but hands down up there as one of best hotels we stayed at. 

Trips loads chichen itza a long day and warm but one to tick off as is Coba Ruins, you could climb that but I think may of been stopped now. Tulum again just nice to tick off with a cenote after. 

Xel ha for your dolphins etc 

Boats trips to isla contoy and mujeres.

And Coco Bongos is dear for what it is but on holiday so just enjoy.

And book with Tui so you can fly on the dreamliner
